Now deprecated generic create_update function based views (create_object<https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/django/views/generic/create_update.py#L100-126>, update_object<https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/django/views/generic/create_update.py#L138-169>, delete_object<https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/django/views/generic/create_update.py#L183-221>) use to create silently failing success messages when the submitted form was valid.
Was it a design decision to omit this feature for class based equivalents? If it was deliberately omitted then, since function based views are deprecated, the message framework documentation for the `fail_silently` kwarg should be updated to remove the part where it makes reference to generic views using it internally<https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/messages/#s-failing-silently-when-the-message-framework-is-disabled> . Here's wip patch<https://github.com/charettes/django/compare/class-based-generic-edit-views-messages.diff>to backport this feature for class based views that I can attach to a ticket if this get acknowledged as a missing feature. I can also submit a doc revision in the other case.
