One example would be having some field which has to be pickled/unpickled when storing it in the DB. This could be implemented either by adding a model _post_load method or by adding such a method to a field. Any other workarounds which would work with current Django version that I'm missing?" defect closed Database layer (models, ORM) normal invalid Design decision needed 0 0 0 0 0 0
