 I have a custom field, which sets up a correspondence between a numpy
 array and a postgres array. It mostly seems to be working. However, when I
 call .full_clean() on a model containing such a field, the validation code
 eventually calls:

 django.db.models.fields.__init__.py(207)validate():

 {{{
 206
 207  ->         if not self.blank and value in validators.EMPTY_VALUES:
 208                 raise
 exceptions.ValidationError(self.error_messages['blank'])
 }}}

 Here, the numpy definition for equality snarls things, and I get:
 {{{
 ValueError: The truth value of an array with more than one element is
 ambiguous. Use a.any() or a.all()
 }}}

 I suggest a {{{ django.db.models.Field }}} member {{{ is_empty }}} be
 added, which does {{{ value in validators.EMPTY_VALUES }}} by default, but
 can be overridden by a custom subclass.
