Comment (by Ivan Chernoff):

 Replying to [comment:9 Tim Graham]:
 > I guess the model field option could be called `db_column_comment`. I
 closed #28407 (introspecting column comments) as a duplicate since that
 should be implemented as part of this.

 I think that we don't need new param, because `comment` for django admin
 may be useful to store in database. But I can't decide on implementation,
 can you give me an advice?
 Postgres and oracle have a syntax like `comment on {table}.{column}` for
 storing comments, so this needs to be done after table/column creation, so
 there are two ways:

 1. Add it to post migrate signal, as for content types. But I can
 implement it as a third-party lib
 2. Add this SQL after database creation in schema.py

 Which way is better?
