Comment:
In discussion with Alex at the sprint, the need for cascading updates of
foreign keys pushes this beyond the bounds of what's reasonable for Django
to try to support. Primary keys should not change.
We should, however, update the admin so that primary key fields are
included in readonly_fields by default, to avoid the confusing and
unexpected creation of new records.
