 {{{
 from django.contrib.postgres.fields import JSONField
 from django.db import models

 class A(models.Model):
     field = JSONField(null=True)

     class Meta:
         app_label = 'T'

 print(A.objects.filter(field=None).query)  # SELECT "T_a"."id",
 "T_a"."field" FROM "T_a" WHERE "T_a"."field" = 'null'

 print(A.objects.filter(field__isnull=True).query)  # SELECT "T_a"."id",
 "T_a"."field" FROM "T_a" WHERE "T_a"."field" IS NULL
 }}}

 If I create a new object with {{{A.objects.create(field=None)}}}, it will
 be stored in the database as NULL. Therefore, I think it would be better
 to use {{{IS NULL}}} query in the first filter from the example. And it
 worked like this at least in 1.9

 Moreover, with the behavior that we have now I can't even do
 {{{A.objects.filter(field=existing_obj.field)}}} if {{{existing_obj.field
 is None}}}
