Comment:
Django is doing exactly what you're asking it to do. You've subclassed
UserAdmin, which specifically installs custom forms to ensure the user
object is correctly validated. When you then remove username from the
available data, the custom form fails validation.
If you subclass admin.ModelAdmin instead of UserAdmin, you won't see this
problem, because the auto-generated form *will* obey the readonly_fields
clause.
