I wonder at that. When I develop a model does the CharField have to be specified case insensitive at that level.
That is what Simon advised and I think it is exactly what I want.
For instance : A search can be case insensitive and iexact is the best way.
Searching isn't the problem. I don't want duplicate names differing only in the case and I want that to be enforced at the model level at instance creation time and also later if the name is edited.
I have been using iexact to "manually" enforce case insensitive-unique names.
