Comment:

 Thanks for this ticket, however, this change would be backward
 incompatible as `get_or_create()` is
 [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/ref/models/querysets/#update-or-
 create documented] to be a shortcut for the pattern:
 {{{#!python
 try:
     <<get>>
     <<save>>
 except DoesNotExist:
     <<update>>
 }}}
 With your proposition `save()` would not be called anymore (and folks have
 a custom logic in their `save()` methods). Moreover support for "UPSERT"
 varies in databases, and it's already possible to do this with passing a
 single object to the `bulk_create()`.
