I suggest we allow fields that are only defined on an abstract base class
of a model, to be overridden by models directly inheriting the abstract
class. As fields on an abstract class are python-only, and don't live in
the database yet, they can easily be switched for another field. If you
use abstract models from sources outside your control, or if you reuse an
abstract model multiple times, this allows for some flexibility without
the need to copy the complete abstract class.
