It's not completely related. Adding natural keys meant providing an alternate way to find existing objects. Generating objects without a PK is a different type of PK handling again. Yes, it's an itch for me, but not a huge one. I've also got a lot of non-Django related stuff on my plate at the moment, so unless something is causing spontaneous combustion, I haven't really got the cycles to look into it myself. The good news is that I'm almost certain that there's a ticket for this feature in Trac somewhere, and I'm not the only Django core dev -- hunt down the ticket, and poke around on django-dev on IRC, and you might be able to find someone to help you shepherd this into trunk for 1.4 (I think SmileyChris expressed some interest in the idea at one point -- Chris... am I remembering correctly?)
