i didn't notice the reset command when i asked the original question. i
always pipe my sql. which is what i'm most comfortable with, but i
understand other people like the convenience of the management commands
running the sql directly.
no interactivity beyond "here's what i want to run. is this ok by you?"
but it's optional via the "--noinput" flag. (like syncdb)
also has the added benefit of automating the post-managed-migration
fingerprint check. (and in the future, will eliminate the copy-paste
step if you want to put all your SQL into managed-migrations.)
