Description
This was proposed on https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/1055 , but it was fixed without including the PK. It was also suggested in https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/20448 , but ignored.
I think the PK is very valuable as repr, as it allows you to retrieve the object unambiguously; while str really can't have a good default implementation.
