And there's 2 other options to consider:
* The ne lookup is actually the first example in the documentation for
custom
lookups[1]. So you get its implementation for free and can consider adding it.
* You can extend Field to add exclude_choices() which sets
limit_choices_to to the
negation of the argument as below - so wrap it with ~Q().
All depending on how isolated your case is in the project/app.
