  • proxy models with no ModelAdmin (even if the concrete model as an admin page)
  • models with InlineAdmin

The proxy model issue is somehow related to #11154 -- if proxy permissions were created we could check them just like any other model.

I'm not sure we should checks for delete permission on objects which model is not registered to the current admin site. If we don't why aren't we relying on ModelAdmin.has_delete_permission and do the same with inlines?

The only drawback is that you must register your model in order to get deletion permission checks. This should be documented at least.

IMO checks should be made this way:

  1. If a ModelAdmin has been registered for this model or an InlineAdmin matches the relationship collected it should be used.
  2. Else if the model is a proxy attempt 1. with the the model it's proxying (allow multiple levels of proxying).
  3. Else fallback on user has_perm.
