There are a few corner cases for objects that only have an implicit primary key field like this. Working with them in the admin interface is one of the areas that may or may not work. It's not really worth us putting in an enormous amount of time to get all of this ironed out, since you can trivially get the same effect using an explicit primary key (just define the primary_key attribute on a field) and then everything should work smoothly. Or you can just fold the empty model into one of the classes it's used in and get rid of it altogether, since it's isomorphic to having an integer field where the ForeignKey currently is. Models with only an implicit id field are permitted in Django. It is possible to do everything without using them, but we support them because it's convenient for some people to work that way. However, it doesn't really make a lot of sense to use them in the admin that I can see -- best to think of it as the admin interface working with explicitly defined fields only; there is nothing to admin if you don't explicitly declare a field.
