I'm getting around the primary key issue by creating my own using
UUID's. While Django doesn't have a UUIDfield at this time, I can use
a charfield to hold it. While its not perfect, especially since true
UUID fields are binary in databases(i.e. Oracle, DB2, PostgreSQL), I'm
faking it. Hopefully, the Django developers will realize at some
point that auto-incrementing integer fields are not ideal for primary
keys because they are a pain in the ass when migrating from one
database to another. UUID fields ARE the becoming the choice for
unique identifiers.
