Introduction

When (un)deleting an object apply the following rules and validation. Multiple cascade options can be active for a record type.

Cascade Option	Describe	Technical Type	Record Types
None	No rules	`NONE`	Record
Cannot have non-deleted children	Delete is rejected if there are non deleted children Prevents unwanted deletion of important records	`REQUIRE_NO_CHILDREN`	Classification, Series
Adopt children by grandparent	The children are adopted by their grandparent If there is no grandparent the delete is rejected	`ADOPT_CHILDREN_TO_PARENT`	Mh2Collection
Cascade to all (grand)children	(Grand)children are asynchronously deleted Delete cascade options from the children themselves are ignored	`CASCADE`	Media

The asynchronous deletion is done using a new batch action.
