 The context is an Admin based application - all database operations are
 done using Admin. The backend is SQLite.
 One of the fields in the application is a field for an (unique) ip
 address:
     `ip = models.GenericIPAddressField(protocol='IPv4', unique=True)`

 When there's an append to enter duplicate IP address, the application
 crashes to a 500 error:

     `django.db.utils.IntegrityError: UNIQUE constraint failed: <table>.ip`

 Attempt at handling that error by catching the exception and emitting an
 message leads to another error:

     `django.db.transaction.TransactionManagementError: An error occurred
 in the current transaction. You can't execute queries until the end of the
 'atomic' block.`

 I would expect that, since the ORM supports unique fields, there's some
 Admin UI to handle constraint errors in a similar way to validation
 errors, and not fall flat and give the user a 500 error.
