Precisely, because data migrations are indeed supported, it should be an
option.
Today I'm in other situation, I have a data migration which requires
being run several times (because updates needed data from remote
sources), today I can't do this with an straightforward command.

I've always thought flush is a weird command because an empty database
is very normally useless, because of data migrations. The docs do even
say:
If you would rather start from an empty database and re-run all
migrations, you should drop and recreate the database and then run
migrate instead.
You can achieve this with:
./manage.py dbshell <<< 'drop database foo; create database foo
<charset utf8mb4 or any other options you need>;'
./manage.py migrate
I've wrapped this up in the big application I work on with a separate
management command that basically does:
assert settings.DEBUG
cursor.execute('drop database; create database...')
call_command('migrate')
I think this solves your problem better than any change to migrations.
Executing "just one migration out of order" is not generally possible
unless it's strictly a data migration.

Currently it's somewhat difficult to process initial data after a
flush. You will need to fake the database state...
In my case I'm creating all tables of the project with the
migration 0001 and populating with initial data on migration 0002.
After spending a time looking for solutions found that I could
achieve the desired result with:
python manage.py flush
python manage.py migrate app 0001 --fake
python manage.py migrate app 0002
python manage.py migrate app --fake
While this works might be confusing (and risky), since django is
indeed providing data-migrations, makes sense that after flushing
the database one could repopulate the database easily. Since
making 'flush' not to delete the data-migrations data seems overly
complicated or simply impossible in real-world, makes sense to be
able to --force a particular migration without touching others.
Hope to read your comments. Greetings!
