Please consider incorporating a doc patch (attached to #11313) for this
release, and backpatching it to previous docs (1.1 - 1.4).
The current implementation of list_editable in the Django admin is
fundamentally broken in the face of possible changes to the data while the
list page is up in the browser. It has caused data destruction in our
organization, and others.
When I get my head above water, I would be glad to help out actually fixing
the bug, but I find it unconscionable that a known critical bug like this
be allowed to continue to trap new users. It should never have been marked
as a new feature. The doc patch is simple and to the point, and was
requested by otheres twice 13 months ago and 3 years ago, when there was
activity on this bug in the past.
Thanks,
Fred Cox

Comment:
1.5 beta has been released. At this stage, only tickets that must be fixed
for RC1 can be release blockers.
Please don't abuse Trac's flags to push your personal agenda at the
expense of everyone else who's waiting for 1.5 final.
If you want to drive more attention to this issue, please write to the
django-developers mailing list.
