Comment (by Ian-Foote):

 For what it's worth, in my (current) use case the postgres handling of
 `null` is ideal. I don't know how typical it is though.

 My use case is annotating a model with a `last_updated` datetime. This is
 calculated from the `created` datetime of two related models:

 {{{
 queryset.annotate(
     last_update=Greatest(
         Max('comments__created'),
         Max('documents__created'),
     ),
 )
 }}}
