Comment (by dfunckt):
I'm inclined to have a go at this. Here's how I envision it:
{{{
class Post(models.Model):
body_text = models.TextField()
body_html = models.TextField(blank=True)
class Meta:
initially_deferred_fields = ('body_text', 'body_html')
}}}
Some thoughts:
- Not sure about the name of the meta attribute, it requires almost as
much effort to get the spelling right as creating a custom manager, but
I'd like to avoid naming it `defer` or `deferred_fields`. I'd like input
on this, but it's not pressing.
- The patch author should be aware of the model meta refactor, perhaps
beginning work after it lands?
