Is it possible to use the criteria api to load a set of parent objects along with a filtered, eagerly loaded set of child objects? I'm trying to query a list of categories and at the same time load the categories products that start with the letter M. The query below gives me the results I want but the Products are not eagerly loaded, that is NHibernate performs additional queries when I enumerate the Product collection:

 var categoriesWithProducts = session.CreateCriteria<Category>()
    .SetFetchMode("Products", FetchMode.Eager)
    .CreateCriteria("Products")
    .Add(Expression.Like("Name", "M%"))
    .List<Category>();

What am I missing here?
