I've done something similar for an e-commerce store. We maintiain the
number of times the product is viewed via search results as well as
the individual product page, as two separate numbers.
I update the fields in the managing views, e.g.:
product.page_view += 1
product.save()

FWIW, I don't see a security issue with exposing a surrogate primary

If you're hung up on the issue, though, take Tom's advice and use a
slug for each house as an unique key. You might find the street
address of a house to be a good slug candidate...

See http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/newforms/#accessing-clean-data,
check the 'Note' section.
This was a problem in the old newforms where you couldn't have a field
called 'data' due to the clean_ functions clashing with the
clean_data dictionary.

It looks like you have it there in your snippet, you just need to
define your 'selected_a' var. Maybe something like:

Then set your b1 choices based on the group and optional a attribute.

To expand on Chris' answer, here's what I would recommend:
Create your project in Subversion (or CVS, or what ha

You could also hang code-friendly values off your Foo object so you
could do:
class Foo(Model):
foo_display = TYPE_KEYS['foo display']
Foo.objects.filter(type=Foo.foo_display)
I'd push for the more readable keys.
