Depth argument not working as intended about django-rest-framework-mongoengine

[danpoland]

Any chance this is being worked on? This issue makes using the lib for anything but really simple models almost impossible.

I'll look into it as soon as I got spare time

Thanks, I will do the same.

The readme says: "Depth is optional and defaults to 5. It is used for ReferenceField & ListField."

The fix to get to this state is pretty simple. However, I would not expect depth to determine how deep the serializer goes into a ListField. Only how many relationships the serializer follows.

From the Django REST framework documentation: "The depth option should be set to an integer value that indicates the depth of relationships that should be traversed before reverting to a flat representation."

You've got a point. Depth should not be used in ListField directly.
Fixing depth argument should fix @crhuber 's specific issue on #37

I will take a look at this this tonight
