Comment (by Tobias McNulty):

 After some discussion on the mailing list (https://groups.google.com/g
 /django-developers/c/DNVRFqVBsfk/m/xDUvaq3DAAAJ) it looks like the
 consensus is to require an explicit opt-in or raise an error (i.e., never
 add a column implicitly if the user specified a list of columns via
 values() or values_list()).

 I am not too familiar with the ORM. I believe these columns are added in
 `get_extra_select()` (`django/db/models/sql/compiler.py`), which could be
 adapted initially to raise a deprecation warning and eventually an
 exception. Does that sound right?

 I may not have time right away so if anyone feels like picking this up, go
 for it.
