Comment (by Nick Stefan):

 @Dylan
 > or example, a very sensible scheme would be to have both
 models.PROTECT_DB and models.CASCADE enabled

 I do understand this desire. The existing foreign key constraints that get
 added for models.CASCADE, only help you when you later go to edit a row
 with one of those not valid foreign keys. It wont enforce / protect you
 when models.CASCADE doesn't get all of the rows it should have.  I hadn't
 considered that there could be a desire for DB_DELETE that is completely
 outside performance desires.

 Is that a fair characterization?
