Comment:

 Rivo, I think you're wrong, but not in the direction you suspected: In
 fact, REPEATABLE READ would still not fix this, and as far as I
 understand, on any database that isn't PG, even SERIALIZABLE won't --
 unless we first select (with no need to fetch) the join of the tables. But
 that would undo much of the performance benefits of `prefetch_related`...

 Some databse engines -- notably SQL Server -- can return several result
 sets (=querysets) from a single command (typically a procedure call).
 Something like that could, at least in principle, help us here.
