I don't think that particular API is likely to be accepted. Maybe custom SelectRelated classes as described in #23854 would allow allow your use case? Did you check if the custom Prefech object would work for what you're trying to accomplish there. It's helpful to explain what your use case actually is instead of just proposing some functionality. Another related ticket might be #25590, "Allow fields to set join class". Please have a look through the other "Database layers" tickets and add more details here if you don't any of them will address what you're trying to accomplish. Thanks!
