The admin app assumes that all of the model's fields are present on the edit page, so if you don't put a field somewhere in Model.Admin.fields then Django will try to set it to null every time you try to modify an instance through the admin interface. I fixed this by changing admin's change_stage function to create follow parameter for the ChangeManipulator using values from Model.Admin.fields lists. Not fully tested yet, I'm putting the patch here hoping that someone will let me know if this is a bad idea.",defect,closed,contrib.admin,dev,normal,wontfix,,marcink@…,Unreviewed,1,0,0,0,0,0
