------------------------------------------+---------------------------------
 I am pretty new to Django/python. While working on a project for Work, Ive
 run into a few seperations the Database layer from Table Schemas. We are
 using Postgres database(s), and when applying the column attribute Default
 or Choices to Fields Ive noticed that this is not applied to the table
 schema as an enumerated type and default keyword.

 As such, I would like to see when choices are applied to a field the
 database schema uses an enumerated type to describe this. This enforces
 several data constinencies, and I think is a better way to describe the
 data and I believe saves space by values being stored as an index not a
 string value of descriptions (makes sense?).
 The same goes for default, and adding a DEFAULT behavior for the
 column/field.
