I am using an ArrayField to store a list of dates. I would like to use
`update()` to add a value to the list, only if the list doesn't contain it
already.
The `contains` part is already supported by Django, but not the
`array_append`.
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/arrays.html#ARRAYS-MODIFYING
Eventually I'd like to be able to do something like this:
`User.objects.exclude(active_in__contains=[current_month]).update(active_in=F('active_in')
+ [current_month])`
which should result in this SQL:
`UPDATE user_user SET active_in = array_append(active_in, [%s]) WHERE
NOT(active_in @> ARRAY[%s]::varchar[]) ['2012-01']`
PS: I want to use `update` instead of `get()` and `save()` for performance
reasons.
