 Example: I want to get all categories which actually have posts.

 - Old way: SELECT... FROM wp_cats... JOIN wp_posts... WHERE
 post_status='publish'

 - New way: get_terms("category")

 The problem is that I can't specify any properties of the related object
 so I would have to use direct SQL again instead of a clean API function.

 Solution: Extend get_terms to add properties of the related object.
 get_terms should know which table needs to be joined via the object_type
 property.
