Just for the record, we spent a good time discussion this change (to bring 
inheritance of Admin Actions in line with Python’s expected inheritance rules). 
We reviewed the entire history of the feature. We explored an alternative 
approach, which would have maintained BC. We put the discussion to the mailing 
list, where further people reviewed it, and we came to a decision, as a group, 
without any objections being raised. 

We didn’t make this decision lightly. 

On balance, we felt the breaking change was justified by the ease of adaption, 
the fact nobody could identify a single use-case of the existing behaviour in 
the wild — and to be fair, there have not been issues raised because of it, 
which we might have expected — and finally, that Django would be better for the 
change.  

I’m sorry that we have a different approach than the one you’ve asked for, but 
hopefully you can accept the reasons that people have given, and, more 
importantly, that decisions are made in good faith, for the best outcome that 
we, as a group, can find.

Kind Regards,

Carlton
