Today I discovered I can use strings and numbers to query on BooleanFields.

Let's say we have the following model:

class Whatever(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    is_active = models.BooleanField()

The following queries return all instances which their `is_active` field is 
True:

Whatever.object.filter(is_active=True)
Whatever.object.filter(is_active='some_random_text')
Whatever.object.filter(is_active=777)

and the followings return the ones which are False:

Whatever.object.filter(is_active=False)
Whatever.object.filter(is_active='')
Whatever.object.filter(is_active=0)

Is this behaviour intentional or is it a bug? Should queries on 
BooleanFields accept strings and numbers?
