Hey this is cool. Which doc is this in? If its not currently supported
for existing records, it'd be great if it became standard - I'd hate
to rely on something that was dropped on a future version of DBIC
because it wasn't official.

The docs appear to indicate that you can't do this when the related
foreign row already exists, but it seems to work for me..
my $customer = $self->schema->resultset('customer')->create({
name => 'Acme Corp',
status_id => { name => 'new'},
});
cheers,

Say I have a table called customer which links to a parent table
called status. I wonder if there is a shortcut so that I don't need
to figure out the parent id in advance if I know the unique name.
my $status = $self->schema->resultset('Status')-
>search({status_name => 'new'})->single;
my $customer = $self->schema->resultset->create({
name => 'Acme Corp',
status_id => $status->id
})
I've had a peruse of the Cookbook, but couldn't see anything
