The reference documentation for `Permission.content_type` [1] [2]
describes the field as:
> A reference to the django_content_type database table, which contains a
record for each installed model.
This seems to me like a more complicated way of saying "A foreign key to
the ContentType model". On top of that, it would be useful if either the
old wording ("django_content_type table") or the new one ("ContentType
model") could link to the reference documentation of the model [3]
