New description:

 By default, accessing $record->Related automatically instantiates a new
 related Record object if one doesn't already exist. This is not always the
 desired behavior, especially in cases where the related record is
 "optional" (i.e. 1 to 0/1).

 There should be an 'autoInstantiate' option when defining a hasOne()
 relationship. For backwards compatability, the default behavior should not
 change. But if one sets 'autoInstantiate' => false, then a non-existing
 related object must be explicitly created.

 I'm working on a test and patch for this, which I'll attach when I have
 them.
