That's absolutely not true.

With any of the ORMs I've used, as soon as you do something even slightly unorthodox like using a view, you're on your own.

Try http://p3rl.org/DBIx::Class in perl sometime.

If you're on your own using a view of all the simple shit, you're using an awful and pointless ORM.

All the ORMs I've used love views because views are just read-only tables. The dumbest ORM might not even notice the difference.
