Does it support nested data on the `fields` declaration?

See original GitHub issue

As a django-piston user, it is common to have nested data on the fields declaration:

fields = (
    'id', 'username',
    ('group', ('id', 'name'))
)

On django-tastypie, this is similar to use full = True on ForeignKey fields.

Is there a way to work with nested data?

It would be great if you would support this natively since i think that feature will be used very frequently!

This should be easier to implement as of Restless 2.0.0, at least in terms of abstraction & less pain. A custom FieldsPreparer subclass could override the prepare method (https://github.com/toastdriven/restless/blob/master/restless/preparers.py#L42-L60) & change behavior based on if the lookup is a dict or a string.

I’m still thinking about if I want to support this natively (maybe a NestedFieldsPreparer). Possibly in Restless 2.1.0.
