 Replying to [comment:3 SShayashi]:
 > Can I check out what you want? You can use  'self' instead of 'Foo' like
 this :
 > {{{
 > class Foo(models.Model):
 >     bar = models.ManyToManyField('self', blank=True)
 > }}}
 >
 > You meant that we should use 'Foo' rather than 'self', right?

 Exactly, though i wasn't aware that `self` would work in that context. I
 think i like naming the type directly more, since `self` could be easily
 confused with the `self` argument of class methods.
