Comment:
From [https://github.com/django/django/pull/15592 the PR] it looks like we
can push forwards with adding a `weak` option to `FileField` that would
have `FieldFile` use a `weakref`, but that we can't just bring that in as
there's a behaviour change with `save()` and `delete()`. (Maybe the case
for the stronger change can be made via discussion on the
DevelopersMailingList.)
