FuelPHP - Many to Many and fields in relation table?

I think FuelPHP doesn't support this feature, but I would like to know the best way to do it....

I have 3 SQL tables: users, modules, modules_users. an user has many modules, and a module may have many users (who follow it). In modules_users, there's the actual_state of the module for this user.

modules_users has these fields: - id - user_id - module_id - actual_state - previous_state - updated_at

I need two ORM Models: Model_User and Model_Modules. I'd like to have access of related objects like this:

$actual_state = Model_User::find($id_user)->modules[$id_module]->actual_state; // from the table `modules_users`
$label = Model_User::find($id_user)->modules[$id_module]->label; // from the table `modules`
// and so on...

How could I do that?

The best way would be to create an extra model that represents your through table (modules_users) and then you would be able to easily access the extra property in your through table.
