Comment:

 Right, inner does not have a primary key value until you call save() on
 it.  So you cannot correctly specify it as the target of outer's key
 before then.  Your code should be:

 {{{
 #!python
 inner = Inner(field="test")
 inner.save()
 outer = Outer(inner=inner, other_field="other test")
 outer.save()
 }}}

 I'm pretty sure this is spelled out somewhere in the docs though I can't
 find it at the moment.  The fact that save() is what creates the object's
 pk is noted here:
