Comment (by gavinwahl):

 > Do you have any problem adding this check to SILENCED_SYSTEM_CHECKS?

 Yes. This is in a reusable app. I can't make my users silence the check in
 order to use it.

 > That's not true, there's a whole ​documented layer of model validation.

 This validation is only used when called explicitly or when using a
 ModelForm. I expect a validation error from an initial value only to be
 raised if I ask if the model is valid.

 > I'm not entirely sure I understand your use case but wouldn't this
 special handling belong at the form level anyway?

 I need to be able to create the model instances without a form. A form is
 only used later, when the user is ready to edit the object. The initial
 object is created without user interaction.
