Comment (by Carlton Gibson):
So, following the discussion of the breaking change in the PRs, digging
into the history, it seems the MRO based collection of actions has been in
place for the entire history of the feature..
It was introduced in #10505 as part of the original feature for v1.1. (The
[https://github.com/django/django/commit/44f3080226#diff-
3c42de3e53aba87b32c494f995a728dfR423 line in the diff].)
`get_actions()` was
[https://code.djangoproject.com/attachment/ticket/10505/admin-
actions.9.diff introduced explicitly] to allow collection of actions from
superclasses.
Given the contributors to #10505, and that it was a conscious decision on
their part, I'm don't feel we can just change the behaviour as part of a
bug fix.
Maybe there's a case for a change, but that should be made separately.
(Currently the behaviour is not tested, but with
[https://github.com/django/django/pull/10607 PR10607] it would be, and not
documented, but a long-overdue paragraph could be added.)
