Comment:

 Not worth it. Firstly, there's proxy models now. More importantly, it's
 symptom patching. The only case this is really a problem (where you are
 forced to use the `__unicode__` method) is when displaying related models
 in the admin. That's not at all specific to the User model and should be
 solved holistically and probably entirely within the Admin interface (or,
 at a minimum, within the related fields infrastructure).
