Attempting to delete your own user account in Django admin view is not handled properly

[erichs@…]

When trying to attempt your own user account from the Django admin pages, it firstly doesn't warn you or disallow such an action, and secondly fails badly with an integrity error (see below). As a side effect you can now no longer logout.:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Fixed description and milestone.

Moving to post-1.0, since it's a slight usability wart, rather than a real showstopper. "Don't do that" is a reasonable workaround for now.
