Now isn't the best time to be asking this sort of question. We're in
the tail end of the v1.1 release cycle, and the everyone whose
attention you need it concentrating on getting that release out the
door.

For 10c of personal opinion to tide you over: this is an area where
improvement is both desirable and possible, but the final form of that
improvement will require some design work. In this case, a big part of
the design includes surveying the various database backends to
establish the level of support for features like ON DELETE RESTRICT et
al. If we expose a feature into the models and/or ORM, it will need to
be supported (or emulated) across all the backends. The migration path
from current behaviour to the new behaviour will also need to be very
clear.

However, now isn't the time for public discussions to sort out these
details. If you want to do the research and get a proposal ready for
the v1.2 proposal period, be my guest.

Yours,
