Comment (by charettes):

 FWIW Adrian proposed adding another keyword argument to `only()`/`defer()`
 that [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/django-developers/defer
 /django-developers/C3qoHEfeeUg/cwBNV5snQPMJ results in loading all
 fields].

 Since we might want to add different kind of actions when a deferred field
 is accessed I suggest to use another name for the kwarg.

 For example, we could issue a warning (`warnings.warn`) or log one
 (`logging.warning`) instead of raising an exception to prevent the code
 from crashing while exposing a way to monitor such instances.
