Comment (by timgraham):

 You can have something like `CharField(default='foo')` since model field
 defaults aren't applied at the database level. [1d3d01b4] prevents
 temporarily setting a default on MySQL to prevent the same error as this
 ticket for Char/TextField.

 Is `PointField(default=???)` a possibility? If so, it seems your proposal
 wouldn't solve the issue entirely. We'd need something like
 [https://github.com/timgraham/django/compare/23719 my initial proposal]
 (possibly using `isinstance(field, GeometryField)` instead). I think your
 proposal may address #23581 though. I will look at that later today.
