Hmmm, worked out a solution on my own, although I'm sure it's less
than optimal.

I'm just returning an HttpResponseRedirect from my action, passing in
the various query string parameters that may or may not have been set
by the filters, e.g. something like:

# Retain filters
params = {}

if 'foo' in request.GET:
params['foo'] = request.GET['foo']
if 'bar' in request.GET:
params['bar'] = request.GET['bar']

return HttpResponseRedirect("/admin/app/model/?%s" %
urlencode(params))
