We're currently in the process of converting from unittest (pure) to Nose, and one of the issues I've noticed while doing this was that the database wasn't flushing correctly when switching from a TransactionTestCase to a TestCase. I've been digging through the code this morning, and I honestly

One of the recent changes in trunk was a change to how querysets were cloned. Due to this, some old code we had is no longer working. This was a custom aggregate which relied on "aggregate_select" (see below). I believe the change I'm referring to is what is causing this, and I'm unsure of what

The problem with this is, when the foreignkey can be null the only way to reference it properly is with a LEFT JOIN. Now, I'm not sure why it isnt implemented in ORM, but I strongly encourage you to find a differently solution, as LEFT JOINs can be VERY costly on system resources. On the same
