Comment (by Simon Charette):

 Glad to hear the workaround worked!

 > We originally chose to misuse the AutoField because Django doesn't offer
 any SERIAL field and it's easier to patch the default value than to create
 the sequences and everything that goes with it ourselves.

 I think this the crux of the issue. Given #27452 already tracks the lack
 of proper support for serial fields, which is something you would have
 used if it was available, I'm also convinced that this issue should be
 closed as it's not actionable.
