------------------------------------+---------------------------------------
 The current dumpdata help is misleading:
 {{{
 Output the contents of the database as a fixture of the given format.
 }}}

 The docs specify that it does this using the default manager on an object
 (leading to potential omissions on dumped data) but a user who checks the
 help command isn't informed of this.

 I've attached a patch which clarifies the dumpdata message slightly as
 well as explicitly mentioning it in the custom manager documentation where
 it should be noticed as a new user learns about managers.
