Sorry for the slow reply. At the moment, there is no way to specify that. (Unless you can use a default manager to do it, but that might be constrained by other things). It would be nice to come up with a better API for this kind of thing. SQLAlchemy may have some good ideas in the way it does eager loading - I believe it has support for equivalents of both select_related and prefetch_related. What I'm saying is that in the absence of that better API, or some way of specifying the query you want, we shouldn't guess and convert one optimisation into another.
