Comment (by Simon Charette):

 Another ''nice to have'' that could be added here would be allow the usage
 of transforms on related fields so we could have lookups of the form
 `__exists` or `__count`

 {{{#!python
 Author.objects.filter(books__exists=Q(title__icontains="ring"))
 Author.objects.filter(books__count__gt=4)
 }}}

 instead of

 {{{#!python
 Author.objects.filter(Exist(Book.objects.filter(author=OuterRef("pk"),
 title__icontains="ring")))
 Author.objects.filter(
      GreaterThan(
          Book.objects.filter(
              author_id=OutRef("pk"),
          ).values(
              "author_id"
          ).values(Count("id")), 4
      )
 )
 }}}

 I think it would go a long way in making it easier for users to work
 around this issue and #10060.
