the load graph is a template to force load desired attributes so once a
load graph has been used the developer has a reasonable expectation that
the specified attributes were loaded but does not care about the state
of the other attributes. Also, the load state of all other attributes
is unknown and based on application access and provider lazy support (a
provider is always allowed to load more than specified by the user) so
if load state must be know isLoaded() must be used and searching the
domain model is of little help.
