Comment (by Sanskar Jaiswal):

 Replying to [ticket:31382 Peter Law]:
 > If you have a non-concrete field which wraps a couple of concrete fields
 (a bit like `GenericForeignKey`, though my codebase doesn't uses this for
 compound data types rather than relations), then when you pass the name of
 that non-concrete field to
 `save(update_fields=('my_non_concrete_field',))`, the model will be saved
 '''without''' saving that field and yet no error will be emitted.

 Hey Peter,
 Could you kindly provide a minimal code sample so that I can successfully
 reproduce this error on my machine?

 Thanks
 Sanskar
