Hi, I have doe quite some testing with deleting entries. The problem with Application-Query-Delete-Entry is that it is treated as ONE database transaction. That means that the database needs to be able to roll back the delet, and copies everything to a transaction-space or something like that.

Hi, If your children is to be deletet, I think that a Application-Query-Delete-Entry call would be the cleanest way to go. If the child does not want to be deleted, it can send an Error. If you do a push, the database will be updated, and the modify-filters will run, which seems unnecessary. If
