[TYPO3-mvc] [Bug discussion] #8494: Extbase now restricts queries to use only properties

This is definitely a breaking change!
The merge was to fast for me, because I see the need for
some discussion.
I used statements like this, but I did not want to have those properites
(like tstamp, cr_date, cruser, starttime, endtime) in the domain model
when I implemented this. But I doesn't want to exclude
that there could be another conclusion (to have those table rows as
properties).

But much more important to revert this merge is, that the property path
comparison feature (e.g. $query->equals('posts.tag.name', $name))
will not work anymore.

Best
