Speaking with regards to the ORM method documented at
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/querysets/#prefetch-related
Of course, ``prefetch_related`` uses a Pythonic join to attach reverse-
related objects and avoids the N+1 queries problem, which of course is
great. However, if you use it like this:
>>> Restaurant.objects.prefetch_related('best_pizza__toppings__topping_type')
It doesn't seem to take advantage ``select_related`` (assuming that
``topping_type`` is a ``ForeignKey`` from ``Topping``. It instead
sends a separate query for ``Topping`` and ``ToppingType``, joining
them in Python. Is it feasible to modify ``prefetch_related`` use
``select_related`` when it encounters a ``ForeignKey``?
