Re: join on plain integerfield

It only uses 2 columns, the "type" of the relation and the id of the
related object. That's why I thought it might be a good fit for your
use case. If you can't use it as-is because your "type" column is a
boolean instead of a foreignkey to ContentType, you can look at the
GenericForeignKey code[1] to see if you can copy and adapt it.
