Populating additional relations

[andrewscfl]

It would be nice if there was a way to specify population of additional relations beyond the main event target collection and its immediate relations. We're using the plugin to sync live information on a table and one of the fields is a part of a collection attached to a linked collection. so like TableA -> TableB -> TableC could all be populated on the update response.

As of right now we're using the socket event to trigger a REST call so that all fields are populated but could be a helpful feature to add in the future.

Any sort of implementation we do will be as performant as doing the secondary REST call that you are currently doing. Auto populating relations will require a call to the resource which is equivalent to a REST call. Leaving it to the REST call also provides the user with more control over the data processing.

If you have any suggestions onalternatives they are welcome.
