Description: ------------ The joinAdd() fourth parameter is used when we don't have an <database_name>.links.ini, otherwise the DB_DataObject will complain about it. I propose to change that behavior. This fourth parameter should mean the entire on clause, not only the field used to make the join. This would be a kind of "force" condition. If you don't have a <database_name>.links.ini, you would use this pamareter anyway, but you can't disable <database_name>.links.ini and use the fourth parameter. I had experimented this kind of need, once the expression I used in the "on condition" made a different result when it was in the "where" . In this case, I needed a "LEFT" join.

JoinAdd needs fixing to use assoc. array as an argument. (eg. if first arg == array) - this should probably be implemented when that change is done
