Would it make sense to load the pack indexes for each base up front,
and then fetch individual objects from a pack if they exist in one of
a base's pack indexes? In such a case, it may not even make sense to
try fetching the object directly first.
What are the circumstances under which it makes more sense to fetch the
whole pack rather than fetching individual objects from it?
