With all this continuous effort required, wouldn't it be simply easier to ditch the whole 'use ORM because it makes life easier' nonsense and use just some SQL-mapping tool like iBatis? Where you really, truly have 100% immediate control over queries, no dancing around with logging and wasting time figuring out why the lib decided to fetch this and not that.

I honestly don't get the fear some people have from SQL. If you can't do SQL good enough for 98% of use cases out there, you are not senior dev, not even experienced one. It's just one of those basic dev requirements that won't go away in next 50 years anyway.
