Comment (by honeyman):
And surely this is not the only use case for this feature (when the
separating of SQLview-based models to a different "namespace" lacks
convenience).
Even more useful would be the capability to have several models in the
same Python file, some of the models requiring the SQL regeneration and
some of them not requiring.
Example: we have a Django model Order (generating the table dbOrder). We
could have manually created SQL views like vwOrder_InProcess,
vwOrder_PartnershipProgram, vwOrder_AttentionRequired, and reengineer the
appropriate Django models for them. Having a capability to mark the view-
based models as "sql_generation_required = False", we could have put the
definitions of all these "special order models" into the same Python file:
{{{
class Order(models.Model):
...
class Order_InProcess(models.Model):
class Meta:
sql_generation_required = False
...
}}}
All these classes could easily share the code, interact - and this is less
convenient if class Order and class Order_InProcess are defined in
separate files.
