Comment (by charettes):
> I'll also note that this isn't even the first time I've had to work
around a buggy, overzealous, or plain wrong system check.
The system check is a still a ''new'' component of Django and from the
feedback we've had so far I think the prevention of misconfiguration and
footguns outweigh the nuisance caused by some initial bugs and required
adjustments.
While I could be convinced we should remove or downgrade this check to a
warning your actual use case doesn't convince me it's worth it. I still
think this check is not buggy, overzealous nor plain wrong but that it's
your use case that is bug prone.
As Tim suggested I think gathering feedback from the developpers mailing
list could help your case here.
In the meantime if want to work around this check you can override the
`check()` method of your reusable field to filter out `'fields.E008'`
errors.
