Deleting thing "A" in hibernate does not update objects with collections of "A"
Say you had a Cat, with Kittens. Then you you did a delete() on a kitten that belongs to a Cat. The Cat object still has a reference to the deleted kitten, until the session closes.
What's an elegant way to avoid this situation?

You should delete the Kitten from the collection of its associated Cat then store the updated Cat. In your hibernate configuration set cascade to "all,delete-orphan" for Cat and the Kitten will be removed from the persisted collection.
