Hold on. One of the reasons a fair bit of effort was put into making it much easier to subclass model fields is so that we don't have to play this endless game of adding every type of specialised field under the sun. If your application requires BIGSERIAL, there's precisely zero dependency on what's in Django. Just include the appropriate field subclass in your application and use it in your model.
