That kind of functionality should be available through the BQuery class
- and probably will in R2.
Perhaps I will include it/it will be included in OpenTracker earlier,
but I don't know - there are currently some more important things to
do.
BTW as I am currently thinking about it: the query engine of BFS could
easily be ripped out and find a new home in OpenTracker/BQuery - let's
see.
Adios...
