The terms for all posts in a query should be fetched while WP_Query is
going through it's various motions. They are saved to the object cache so
you won't find them in each $post, but once a post has been queried you can
fetch it's terms for free (no db queries, fast access to object cache).

I think that answers your question. Yes, you'll have to loop through all
taxonomies you are interested in to act on them, but it shouldn't be any
harder than looping through a $post->terms array, and avoids cluttering up
WP_Query objects with tons of metadata.
