This is a similar proposal to https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/31561,
but it is not the same. Currently using
{{{
x in myQuerySet
}}}
results in python using the fallback solution:
https://docs.python.org/3/reference/expressions.html#membership-test-
details
Because https://groups.google.com/g/django-
developers/c/NZaMq9BALrs/m/OCNTh6QyCAAJ deiced to implement contains in
https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/24141
I think it is only consistent to have the same behavior implemented in
__contains__. I would expect that, it is also a more efficient
implementation and unifies django behavior. Nevertheless, documentation is
needed why this inconsistency exists. I was not able to find a reason.
Because the mailing list agreed on adding contains, this is discussed
behavior. Why was __contains__ not added in the first place? To not have
breaking changes? I cannot see what would break.
As said in https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/31561 a queryset could be
a collection to make typing easier. But this is not the intention of this
issue.
