@benjamn could we add a test showing this working? Otherwise I think this is a great post read notification to help with some gotchas of not having a full schema! |

This would have helped diagnose the cause of #4025, which is that query fields with non-scalar types (or list-of-non-scalar types) must have a selection set. In other words, given a schema like type Query { selectedMessageList: [SelectedMessage] } a query like query getSelectedMessageList { selectedMessageList @client } is invalid since it doesn't specify which fields of the SelectedMessage objects should be included in the list.

IdValueobjects by throwing a helpful exception:While the client does not have access to the schema, it is possible to determine if a value that's about to be returned is a non-scalar object.
