@martinsdahl@ohai.social But it doesn't seem like a hard dependency, because you can re-enable the view without complaint, and then when you go to the fields, the deleted one is just gone.

@mikemccaffrey@drupal.community I totally understand, and we have many times also experienced the same unwanted deletion of views. One could pitch a "soft dependency" concept to core. I believe that many modules could implement a kind of "remove soft dependencies of the following dependants", which for views would be to remove these fields from the SELECT statement. However, If the view had relationships or filters dependent on certain fields, the case is no longer clear and manual resolve is required.
