Comment (by lukeplant):
The reason for the current behaviour is to help interactive coding and
learning of Django - if you type an expression that returns a `QuerySet`,
you get something helpful. See the tutorial for example:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.5/intro/tutorial01/
This would have to be considered when weighing up this ticket - a lot of
Django tutorials (our own and others) would need significant modification,
and the habits of people used to the current behaviour.
