You mean something like this?

    $o = My::Object->new(id => 100)->load(with => 'type.category');

where you can then say:

    $cat_name = $o->type->category->name;

and it won't hit the db again.  Or maybe I'm misunderstanding what you
want?  Can you give a code example of what you're trying to do?
