Queries over related objects
----------------------------
When specifying a query over a related object, you have the option of
b = Blog.objects.get(id=5)
e1 = Entry.objects.filter()
Queries involving related objects follow the same rules as queries involving
normal value fields. When specifying the the value for a query to match, you
may use either an object instance itself, or the primary key value for the
object.
For example, if you have a Blog object ``b`` with ``id=5``, the following
three queries would be identical::
Entry.objects.filter(blog=b) # Query using object instance
Entry.objects.filter(blog=b.id) # Query using id from instance
Entry.objects.filter(blog=5) # Query using id directly
