- revert part of c01558ae7f4a for now as we also test that a DELETE of two rows

where one is to be deleted from ON DELETE CASCADE succeeds; the check here makes that fail.
We will need to add an option to enable/disable this check per mapping, will likely
do this in next version

         Fixed ORM bug where changing the primary key of an object, then marking
         it for DELETE would fail to target the correct row for DELETE.
-        Then to compound matters, basic "number of rows matched" checks were
-        not being performed.  Both issues are fixed, however note that the
-        "rows matched" check requires so-called "sane multi-row count"
-        functionality; the DBAPI's executemany() method must count up the
-        rows matched by individual statements and SQLAlchemy's dialect must
-        mark this feature as supported, currently applies to some mysql dialects,
-        psycopg2, sqlite only.
+        Note that we cannot currently check "number of rows matched" in general
+        for DELETE statements as we can't be sure that a self-referential
+        ON DELETE CASCADE has gotten there first.
