8972	Add ability to delete selected vector features within the Geodjango/OpenLayers Admin map interface	springmeyer	jbronn	"This feature has been needed for some time, and was recently requested. See: http://groups.google.com/group/django-users/browse_thread/thread/36242edfd0d0281c?hl=en

I've started a basic patch that adds a javascript function to allow multiple features to be selected in the map interface, deleted from view, and removed from the save method.

I've tested this so far when editing multipolygon data in the admin.

A known issue I'm hoping others may have a solution to:

Currently, an OL javascript error occurs on line 948 of OpenLayer.js after successfully deleting a feature. This do not seem to cause any problems in saving the correct geometry or in continuing to use the select control. This is the firebug output:
{{{
