[FLOW3-general] Foreign Key Handling

[Erik Frister]

Hi Robert,

thanks for your reply. So if I understood you correctly, aggregates will 
automatically be deleted when their aggregate root is deleted, but as 
soon as an object gets its own repository, I can no longer add any 
custom relations to other objects? Will something like this be 
implemented in the future?

Thanks,
Erik
