Most of this was addressed by others. SPOPS definitely has better
many-to-many support right now. It would be nice to improve that in
Class::DBI. I currently use custom SQL methods when I have many-to-many
relationships.

Are you referring to generating automatic editing forms? Struts, and
Spring don't do that either AFAIK. OpenInteract does some of it.
It's a relatively simple piece of glue code to map URIs to method calls.
Doing a good job at auto-generating forms can be tough though.
