Using @reverse in JSON syntax

After WEEKS of agonizing frustration with DGraph, I have finally found the holy grail of GraphQL+/- syntax that does what I need …

Attempt: OMG!

{
  query: 'query {
    parents(func:type("Parent")) @filter(eq(name,"Bob")) { parentUID as uid }
    childrenUIDs as children(func:type("Child")) @cascade { parent @filter(uid(parentUID)) }
  }',
  delete: [{
    'uid': 'uid(childrenUIDs)'
  }, {
    'uid': 'uid(parentUID)',
    'children': 'uid(childrenUIDs)'
  }]
}

This query removes both the relations of the chosen parent with their children as well as the children themselves.
