Is it possible I may have encountered a bug here?

I have a table mapping that maps the attributes of fe_users to my properties 
in my user-object.
Now, I have added a column for my watchlist to the fe_users table that is 
mapped to my 'watchlist' property. 
Normally the column is called 'tx_myext_watchlist', but when I name it just 
'watchlist' and comment out the mapping, so that the property and the column 
have the same name the extbase 'persistence exception' disappears.
Now extbase is able to access the m:m relation and do what it is supposed to.

As far as I understand the whole concept I should be able to do what I am 
trying with a mapping, too (otherwise they may be relatively useless).

Also, in the TCA, when I specify config['multiple'] => 1, shouldn't I be able 
to add as many of the same relations as I want? Because it seems that 
currently only the first relation to be inserted is updated with the new uid.

Also, shouldn't creating a record in a mm-table also add a 'crdate' to said 
record? My crdates are all '0'...

Thanks,
Florian
