of work such that loading for related many-to-one objects is slightly
more aggressive, in the case of a graph of self-referential objects
that are to be deleted; the load of related objects is to help
determine the correct order for deletion if passive_deletes is
not set.
- revert the changes to test_delete_unloaded_m2o, these deletes do in fact
need to occur in the order of the two child objects first.

implicitly initialized to None via first access; this action,
which has always resulted in a population of the attribute,
now emits an attribute event just like any other attribute set
operation and generates the same kind of history as one.  Additionally,
many mapper internal operations will no longer implicitly generate
these "None" values when various never-set attributes are checked.
These are subtle behavioral fixes to attribute mechanics which provide
a better solution to the problem of :ticket:`3060`, which also
involves recognition of attributes explicitly set to ``None``
vs. attributes that were never set.

:func:`.validates` function; when set to False, a validation event
will not be triggered if the event was initated as a backref to
an attribute operation from the other side. [ticket:1535]
- break out validation tests into an updated module test_validators

to descriptors, like hybrids, synonyms, composites, user-defined
descriptors, etc.  The attribute
adaptation which goes on has been made more robust, such that if a descriptor
returns another instrumented attribute, rather than a compound SQL
expression element, the operation will still proceed.
Addtionally, the "adapted" operator will retain its class; previously,
a change in class from ``InstrumentedAttribute`` to ``QueryableAttribute``
(a superclass) would interact with Python's operator system such that
an expression like ``aliased(MyClass.x) > MyClass.x`` would reverse itself
to read ``myclass.x < myclass_1.x``.   The adapted attribute will also
refer to the new :class:`.AliasedClass` as its parent which was not
always the case before. [ticket:2872]

by the ORM to iterate mapper hierarchies; under the Jython interpreter
this implementation wasn't ordered, even though cPython and Pypy
maintained ordering.  Also in 0.8.3.
