Firstly, you don't need to have members in the view in order to be
able to use them in the query -- all the members from all the
associated objects can always be used.

Secondly, yes, I agree, if you need the object then this solution is
not ideal. In fact, there is a plan to add support for "object-loading
views" that instead of loading specific members will load the whole
object.
