New description:
When using QuerySet.union() (possibly also `intersection()` and
`difference()`) in Django, any `prefetch_related()` applied to the second
(and third, etc) queryset is silently ignored. See
[https://forum.djangoproject.com/t/using-union-with-querysets-that-have-a
-custom-prefetch-object/41638 forum thread in which it was suggested to
open a documentation ticket]. A docs improvement should also likely
include the workaround for using `Q` objects to do all prefetches in the
base qs (where possible), which is suggested by Simon in the forum.
