20777	admin delete page proxy models	Collin Anderson	nobody	"This #18491 broke proxy model `__unicode__()` on the admin delete page:
https://github.com/django/django/commit/2b48fcc607010065c0f8107baf669dd41b164f3c

The concrete model is being instantiated with no attributes except the primary key. This breaks `obj.__unicode__()` because it can't reference any of its fields. (It also means that we're displaying `BaseModel.__unicode__()` instead of `ProxyModel.__unicode__()`, which isn't a problem for me.)

I have a simple project you can use to try it yourself:
