Comment (by Markush2010):

 Since there is no special handling for any database except SQLite in the
 `_alter_field()` schema alteration I didn't want to introduce one for
 PostgreSQL. Thus I ended up with the 4-way-default-alteration 1) Add a
 default for new incoming writes, 2) Update existing NULL rows with new
 default, 3) Replace NULL constraint with NOT NULL, 4) Drop the default
 again.

 I also updated the pull requested with the recent changes.
