sorry, I meant "no mechanism to be disabled on a per-instance basis".

unfortunately no, that's a backref event handler, that's within the class

[sqlalchemy] Temporarily disable/intercept ORM events on mutation

2023-09-15 Thread 'Luna Lucadou' via sqlalchemy
When customers call our JSON:API API, they can use an "include" parameter 
to specify related objects to be appended to the response.

However, requests to include are not always satisfiable (e.g. if 
job.supervisor=null, include=supervisor is ignored).
In order to prevent Marshmallow from trying to load nonexistent related 
objects to append to our API responses, we need to tell it when to ignore a 
relationship attribute, such as via setting 
job.supervisor=marshmallow.missing (if it sees job.supervisor=None, it will 
attempt (and fail) to load the null supervisor object, so we cannot just 
leave it as-is).

Unfortunately, this causes problems as SQLAlchemy attempts to handle the 
new value:

Is there any way to temporarily disable ORM event listeners when we mutate 
objects and have no intention of saving the changes/do not intend for the 
ORM to act on them?
