Comment (by ptone):

 So looking at this mostly for my own edification.

 A higher level place this could be checked would be
 `db.models.where.Constraint.process`

 otherwise: `db.models.fields.related.RelatedField.get_db_prep_lookup` and
 `db.models.fields.related.RelatedField._pk_trace`

 seem like the best places to tackle this.

 However unless a patch is pretty quick, it seems worth improving the docs,
 at least in the interim, to clarify that lookup values for model instances
 will always be converted to a simple pk value for database lookups.
