Comment (by aaugustin):
FWIW I don't see a lot of value in adding this constraint. Implementing it
requires a fragile and untestable combination of inner imports to avoid
touching the models module.
If the only problem is to avoid creating tables in the database, add a
`MIGRATION_MODULES` entry for the auth app that points to an empty
package. I never tried it but I think it should work.
If this workaround is confirmed to work, I propose to close this ticket as
wontfix.
