Comment (by Natalia Bidart):
Hello!
(EDIT: I was writing this message when David submitted theirs, so while
David's answer is more accurate, I'll post mine to share the links and doc
pointers).
This report seems like a mix of a new feature request and a support
request. The best place to get answers to your final question ("Is there a
way to do this w/o using `extra()`?") is using any of the user support
channels from [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/faq/help/#how-
do-i-do-x-why-doesn-t-y-work-where-can-i-go-to-get-help this link]. For
feature requests, the current procedure is to start a new conversation on
the [https://forum.djangoproject.com/c/internals/5 Django Forum] to
present the idea and get community consensus, as per
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/internals/contributing/bugs-and-
features/#requesting-features the documented guidelines for requesting
features].
Since the goal of this issue tracker is to track issues about Django
itself, I'll be closing this ticket as invalid following the
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.2/internals/contributing/triaging-
tickets/#closing-tickets Ticket Triaging policy].
Having said that, what I personally would do is to have different field
names for the `DateTimeField` and its "processed" milliseconds since
epoch, and I would have the latter be a `GeneratedField` (or an
annotation) of the former.
Thank you!
