You will not be able to set attributes other than for
fields defined by your SQL result. Those, you can change.

You can easily add artificial fields to your SQL...


Another work around may be to use acquition, i.e. use
the SQL result as (acquisition) parent for your object.
You can than define as many attributes as you like in
your object.
By acquisition magic, lookups are forwarded to your
SQL result when your object cannot satisfy them.
