The best way to handle it is with links. If you don't want to do it like that, it is far from supported, and difficult to hack in (the pipeline just doesn't easily pass the information around). Personally I'd recommend rolling your own adapter in that case (Ember without Ember Data).

App.Foo = DS.Model.extend({
  name: DS.attr('string'),
  bars : DS.hasMany('bar', {async:true})
});

App.Bar = DS.Model.extend({
  foo: DS.belongsTo('foo'),
});

json:

{
  id: 1,
  name: "bill",
  links: {
    bars: '/foo/1/bars'
  }
}
