+
+"del" implemented for ORM attributes
+------------------------------------
+
+The Python ``del`` operation was not really usable for mapped attributes, either
+scalar columns or object references. Support has been added for this to work correctly,
+where the ``del`` operation is roughly equivalent to setting the attribute to the
+``None`` value::
+
+
+ some_object = session.query(SomeObject).get(5)
+
+ del some_object.some_attribute # from a SQL perspective, works like "= None"

.. _change_4257:
info dictionary added to InstanceState
--- /dev/null
+.. change::
+ :tags: bug, orm
+ :tickets: 4354
+
+ A long-standing oversight in the ORM, the ``__delete__`` method for a many-
+ to-one relationship was non-functional, e.g. for an operation such as ``del
+ a.b``. This is now implemented and is equivalent to setting the attribute
+ to ``None``.
