#' Create a [RelDataModel] object from column names of data frames
#'
#' @param ... the data frame objects, as names (unquoted) or character strings
#' (quoted)
#' @param list a character vector naming data frame objects
#' @param pos where to get the objects.
#' By default, uses the current environment.
#' See ‘details’ for other possibilities.
#' @param envir the environment to use. See ‘details’.
#'
#' @details The pos argument can specify the environment from which to get
#' the objects in any of several ways:
#' as an integer (the position in the search list);
#' as the character string name of an element in the search list;
#' or as an environment.
#' The envir argument is an alternative way to specify an environment,
#' but is primarily there for back compatibility.
