Comment (by HM):
I use the function get_user_model() which reads from a setting what user-
model to use. Then instead of
{{{
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
...
user = models.ForeignKey(User...
}}}
I do
{{{
User = get_user_model()
...
user = models.ForeignKey(User...
}}}
The apps using the user-model must not have conflicting needs of course,
but we are after all using Python and are all consenting adults, right? No
need for handcuffs and bullet-proof contracts.
