    Vlink.owner = tblA

Owner is important IF you want to use e.g. CASCADE deletion.
Then when you delete record of owner, the child records are deleted.

Since, 1 : 1 and M : M are symmetric,
We need assign owner manually.

But Hmm, I do not remember if the first table is marked to be owner on
default....we need check this.
