I think that cascade delete is most commonly used where there is a
one-to-possibly-zero relationship (with a [zero or one or many]-to-
one on the other side). Thus, the other side has the foreign key,
and the side with the cascade delete definition is the side with
the existence that doesn't depend on the other side. So deleting
the other side first usually solves the timing issues.
Does anyone else have an opinion on this? Should we consider the
children to be deleted before parent when cascading a delete? I have
no problem with that strategy.

Thanks for the personal invitation.
Yeah, I just noticed that they've added that to the outgoing
signature. How obnoxious. Supposedly they're working on removing
the signature for us.
