I think it becomes a new optional argument to `.insert_all()` and `.insert()` and `.upsert_all()` and `.upsert()`. Question is, what should that argument be called? Options: - `columns` - `types` - `type_overrides` - `extra_columns` I like the first two best. I'm leaning towards `columns` - it would serve two purposes: you can use it to ensure extra columns are created, and you can use it to specify the type on extra OR deteced columns. Maybe something like this: ```python db[""authors""].insert_all( [{""id"": 1, ""name"": ""Sally"", ""score"": ""2""}], pk=""id"", not_null={""name"", ""score""}, defaults={""score"": 1}, columns={""score"": int, ""weight"": float} ) ```","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",601358649,
