Comment (by jarshwah):
I'm suggesting that `GeomValue` could be made public.
> but IMO if SomeField() accepts some_value then Value(some_value,
output_field=SomeField()) should be valid.
Not so. The first argument to `Value` needs to be convertible by the
backend driver to a param. `Value(Point(1, 1), output_field=X)` generates
`"%s", (Point(1, 1), )`. The `output_field` is only really responsible for
converting the value returned from the database into a useable model
field, it doesn't take responsibility for serialising the value to be sent
to the database. It *could* be used for serialisation but it doesn't for
`Value`.
