Add support for prefetching fields This makes it possible to specify the fields that should be prefetched as part of a getForFields query. Doing a prefetch on a ReferenceProperty when it is known that the property will be referenced in (almost all) entities is far more efficient than doing the invididual fetches sequentially.

    if not feed_dict:
        raise Http404, "No feeds are registered."

    try:
        slug, param = url.split('/', 1)
    except ValueError:
        slug, param = url, ''

    try:
        f = feed_dict[slug]
    except KeyError:
        raise Http404, "Slug %r isn't registered." % slug

    try:

        raise Http404, "Invalid feed parameters. Slug %r is valid, but other parameters, or lack thereof, are not." % slug
