Comment (by David Sanders):
Hi Arthur,
Just FYI this appears to make it work if you're looking for an immediate
fix:
{{{
serializers.serialize("json", Item.objects.prefetch_related('tags'))
}}}
The docs state that `serialize()` expects a queryset rather than a
material list, however, without prefetching we get the same infinite
recursion… so I'd wager this will remain accepted.
