Yeah, the important part is "not been fetched and cached".  It creates  
a fault for the GID of the raw row.  If that GID is in the snapshot  
cache, you will not hit the db, but if you just did a raw row query  
against your db and got a bunch of rows back that have not been cached  
in the snapshot cache, it will do a second database hit to fill in the  
snapshot even if the raw row dictionary you have represents exactly  
what it would pull in that second query.  This was the point of my  
earlier gripe, actually.
