Comment (by carljm):

 I think that in fact, squashing old migrations does solve this problem,
 and that's the solution we should recommend. Even third-party apps can
 squash migrations and then later remove them without any problem. They
 just need to get started on that process with enough lead time so that any
 of their users who upgrade to Django 1.9 have already gotten through the
 squashed migration set and upgraded to the version of the third-party app
 that removes the old migrations.
