Comment (by jdufresne): > However, your current change is backwards incompatible and will break many users' tests. I therefore don't consider it a bug but a feature request. > > One idea that comes to mind, of how to solve the problem in a backwards compatible manner, would be a flag on the client check_is_active=True that would allow to bypass the check. Understood about backwards incompatible concern. I can investigate coding this idea if there is agreement that it is the best approach. > How about documenting this for now? So long as the limitation exists, makes sense. You're diff looks good to me. -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/24987#comment:6> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
