Description

A predicate is condition that can be matched against some item to determine whether that item meets the condition.

Django has a relatively rich set of lookup terms that can be used in filtering a queryset.

What is proposed is a new behavior of a Q object, that allows the conditions described in the formation of a Q instance, to be tested agains a model instance.

The initial implementation of this was released separately:

Current work-in-progress to bring this into Django is here:

It seems like the improved lookups API has superseded this, at least for now.
