something like:
def save( self ):
old_data = self.__class__.objects.get(pk=self.id).__dict__
old_data['deleted'] = True
self.__class__.objects.create( **old_data )
super( models.Model, self ).save()
then when you do
m = Model.objects.get(pk=42)
m.some_field='some new value'
m.save()
another object will appear in your DB, m will be the updated object
you should add some transaction support, check if anything has changed
etc, but it should work...
