Comment:

 Accepting the ticket as an improvement.

 {{{
 #!python
 raise self.field.rel.to.DoesNotExist(
     "%s has no %s." % (self.field.model.__name__, self.field.name)
 )
 }}}

 ''Model has no field.'' sounds better to me but I'd also like comments on
 the wording.

 I removed the `null` part since this exception can also be raised if the
 field as an invalid value as pointed out in comment:3.

 This needs testing and an addition to the release note.
