unique_together and edit_inline causes error in admin, depending on uniqueness order

A little bit more on that. Given this model:

class Poll(models.Model):
    question = models.CharField(maxlength=200)
    def __str__(self): return self.question
    class Admin: pass

class Choice(models.Model):
    poll = models.ForeignKey(Poll,edit_inline=models.TABULAR,num_in_admin=5)
    position = models.IntegerField(core=True)
    choice = models.CharField(maxlength=200,core=True)
    votes = models.IntegerField(blank=True,default=0)
    def __str__(self): return '%s (%d)' % (self.choice, self.votes)
    class Meta:
        # 1)
        #unique_together = (('position','poll'),)
        # 2)
        unique_together = (('poll','position'),)

1) this raise AttributeError: 'AddManipulator?' object has no attribute 'isUniqueposition_poll' when Poll.AddManager (or ChangeManager) instance is created (Yes, Poll, not Choice)

2) this don't, but is not taken into account, and lead to an integrity error if trying to add a duplicate entry

That's all for now. Hope this help! -- didier
