Comment:
Hi.
This is more of a question than a bug report. It might have been better
targeted (at least initially) at the django-users or similar.
However...
I don't think there's much we can do here. The long and short is, that's
just how model forms work: they instantiate an instance of the model,
update attributes on that, and call `save()`, rather than using manager
`create()` style helpers. (That's not something that's realistically going
to change I think.)
You **could**, in your own project override the default admin and provide
an `add_form` that used your `create_user` and so on. (No doubt there'd be
wiggles.)
That's beyond the scope of help we can provide here I'm afraid.
Good luck. Have fun.
