Comment:

 It seems I will have to revert this whole commit. The problem is we define
 '&' and '|' operators as bitwise and / or. But, other operators we define
 as boolean operators. This means (F('somefield') < 100) & (F'somefield') >
 50) doesn't do what one expects, and downright fails on some databases.

 I can see only one solutions apart of just reverting and wontfixing this
 issue: Create a subclass of F which redefines what '&' and '|' mean.

 I will leave this open for a while to see if any ideas pop out. The most
 likely solution is a revert from 1.5. Then we can revisit this issue for
 1.6 and see if we can create something working...

 This is causing a failure in expressions tests at least on postgres.
