Hello, I am experiencing an inconvenience in regards to working with signals on model instances with deferred attributes. Specifically I am trying to get a post_save signal to fire from a save() call on such a model instance.
The problem is that the sender class (`origin` in django.db.models.base.ModelBase.save_base) will be the special deferred class as returned by django.db.models.query_utils.deferred_class_factory and not the actual model class. Thus a subscription to post_save on the real model class will not receive the signal signaled by the deferred class. An obvious workaround would be to just override the save() method. If however this behavior is intentional, I think this should be at least noted in the documentation (on the defer() method) to save others wasting time on debugging why their signals doesn't fire.
