Comment (by rvanhoepen):
What you really should do to "soft delete", is to just do an update query,
and then do a select with a filter to show objects that are not "deleted".
The only problem with your feature is backwards compatibility.
I also don't think this should be inside the delete function, since human
error can result into unwanted behavior.
A simple update query like:
Entry.objects.filter({conditions go here}).update(deleted=1),
will suffice.
