9522	Python serializer doesn't use base Serializer.get_string_value	Alexander Koshelev	Alexander Koshelev	"Just now python serializer in `handle_field` simple call `getattr` to retrieve field value form the object:
{{{
smart_unicode(getattr(obj, field.name), strings_only=True)
}}}

And base Serializer has method `get_string_value` that calls appropriate `value_to_string` field method but derived serializers doesn't call it at all.

It causes problem than model has non-string field that cannot simply be converted to string."		closed	Core (Serialization)	1.0		fixed		Axel Hecht Christian Hammond	Accepted	1	0	0	0	0	0
