Description

When trying to add an object of the wrong type using a related manager, Django fails silently rather than complaining as specified in the docs:

http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/db/queries/#saving-foreignkey-and-manytomanyfield-fields

Example:

class ParentModel(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=200)

class ChildModel(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    parent = models.ForeignKey(ParentModel, related_name="child_models")

class NotAChildModel(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=200)

p = ParentModel(name='Parent')
p.save()
nc = NotAChildModel(name='Not A Child')
nc.save()
p.child_models.add(nc) # This should blow up, but doesn't
p.child_models.all() # Returns []
