Haha, well, doctor, I won't hold my breath then :) Would definitely be nice to have though. On another note, there seems to be another unhandled corner case. If the query returns no results, the final return self.filter(id__in = group_idents) gets called with group_idents=[]. filter(id__in=[]) seems to make the ORM unhappy. I "fixed" this with the hacktastic solution of always appending a 0 to group_idents. It seems that all id's are > 0, which means that id__in=[0] will return an empty query set. Is this a reasonable solution?
