Would you consider using faker as the tube backend?

This could replace a bunch of your code and is maybe easier to extend. https://github.com/joke2k/faker

In a first step I would add it as a new Tube that can then include any faker methods.

Good idea. I might do it on my fork ( https://github.com/DjangoAdminHackers/django-scaffolding ) if I get time. PS scaffolding has been really useful in the prototype stage of an app we're building. It's nearly time to move to real data and migrations but it's been really quick and fun to use scaffolding and just reset the db every time.
