I believe there are a bunch of similarities between the requirements of

I'd love to help implement this if we can find a rough syntax! I've made a
proof of concept in Postgres, and there are two outstanding limitations to
address:
- The generated field value is not set until the model is reloaded from the
database
- The `GENERATED ALWAYS` expression requires an
+1

I'd be interested in seeing this. Generated columns are a useful SQL
feature that are missing from Django.
