Comment (by Simon Charette):

 Thanks for the extra details Victor.

 Could you confirm that the following patch work for you when setting
 `self.pk = None` in `reset()`.

 {{{

 -        return setattr(self, self._meta.pk.attname, value)

 +            setattr(self, field.attname, value)

      pk = property(_get_pk_val, _set_pk_val)
 }}}

 This code should make sure that setting `self.pk = None` does
 `self.item_ptr_id = self.id = None` for any level of concrete model
 inheritance. That should be enough for `save()` to create new objects from
 my local testing.
