Yeah.  I was doing it intentionally - I knew what I was doing, I just
didn't know it wasn't allowed.

What I want to do is replace the concept of a Category with a
ParentCategory that has no parents, but has children, and a
ChildCategory that has no children, but has a parent.  The parent and
child models will have a few additional fields not included in the
Satchmo Category, but not the SAME few fields.

I was hoping to use Django Admin to manage all of this, but I suppose
I can make my own views and handle the restrictions there.
