 I have to respectfully disagree with you on this issue. I have the
 following in a model:

  mac_address = models.CharField(maxlength=12, blank=True, null=True,
 unique=True)

 This causes the admin interface to throw database constraint errors
 whenever there is more than one empty mac address in the table. If the
 admin interface correctly left these as NULL then everything would work
 properly. If you can tell me a better way to get the behaviour I need then
 I am open to suggestions (Field should be blank or unique) as I use this
 for a large number of fields and the fact that it works properly on
 everything except strings is very frustrating.
