+1,

 

I am fan of checking the constraints in the controller level instead of relying 
on FK constraints itself, thanks.

can you elaborate on your reasoning that FK constraints should be used less
overall?  or do you just mean that the client side should be mirroring the same
rules that would be enforced by the FKs?


I don't think he means that we will use them less.  Our SQL backends are full 
of them.  What Keystone can't do is rely on them because not all 
implementations of our backends support FKs.

100% spot on David. We support implementations that have no real concept of FK 
and we cannot assume that a cascade (or restrict) will occur on these 
implementations.
