Hi all,

In my app, which involves doing background tasks and possibly rerunning 
them a number of times, I find myself using this pattern a lot:

instance, created = Model.objects.get_or_create(key1=key1, key2=key2,
>                                                 defaults={"field1":field1, 
> "field2":field2})
> if not created:
>     instance.field1 = field1
>     instance.field2 = field2
>     instance.save()


This is unsatisfyingly WET. Does anyone know a better way to do this that 
still preserves all the integrity and lack of race conditions get_or_create 
gives you?

Thanks,
ojno
