I found this quite interestine discussion: http://groups.google.com/group/django-developers/browse_thread/thread/166752daf5c96499/007ff42d83ac60c0
my opinion is close to Russell Keith-Magee opinion there. It looks like a lot of effort was done just to conform django with small number of databases. This is not so but idea from some point of view, but losing efficient, tested methods of handling deletes by db backends seems to be a great loss for me. Isn't possible to implement this as a sort of fallback mechanism 'if I can relay on DB deleteing policy then I use it, otherwise Django machinery created for that is enabled'? Or amybe there is some workaround to make this work more efficient I'm missing at the momment?
