Comment (by carljm): If I'm not mistaken, the need for cascade is entirely determined by the model schema; in other words, for a given call to `bulk_delete`, the need for cascade won't change at runtime. In other words, you're not going to have code calling `bulk_delete` that usually works but occasionally fails. So it seems fine to me to omit (3) and just raise an error if `bulk_delete` is used on a model requiring cascade. Implementing (3) sounds to me like a lot of additional deletion code and bug surface area, for little benefit. -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/9519#comment:22> 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.
