Body
I want to emulate the delete confirmation page behavior before saving certain models in the admin. In my case if I change one object, certain others should be deleted as they depend upon the object's now out-of-date state. I understand where to implement the actual cascaded updates (inside the parent model's save method), but I don't see a quick way to ask the user for confirmation (and then rollback if they decide not to save). I suppose I could implement some weird confirmation logic directly inside the save method (sort of a two phase save) but that seems...ugly. Any thoughts, even general pointers into the django codebase? Thanks!

Guidance

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
