Learning about fetch, a very old introduction (good read).
<i>http://ez.no/Exponential/documentation/customization/custom_design/database_connectivity</i>

I think after reading this I would seek to add the custom fetch (and or attributes),
I needed in the kernel as a ... proof of concept, possibly to be submitted back as a patch.
Files to read, 'kernel/content/function_definition.php', 'kernel/content/ezcontentfunctioncollection.php'

Default fetch functions,

Fetch Alias features,

Ok thanx.

Its sad its not a built-in feature to be able to group per child attribute.

This would definitly solve the problem of managing the color/size/quantity in products in EZP.
