Comment:

 Old open ticket but still no decision here.

 Convention is that myfk's raw value equivalent is myfk_id.

 IMHO this is handy and should be implemented across the board, ie
 filter(), get(), and get_or_create(); not just for create().

 In particular, for filter(), since the superfluous join is performance
 penalty enough to make it useless in many situations.

 If we can reach a consensus I'll supply the patch with docs and tests.
