However, if you're using any functionality that depends on groups, you will need to at least provide a null implementation. If you're using an app that integrates with object-level permissions, then it sounds like you're going to need to provide at least *some* interface.
Beyond that, I can't be much help - I don't know anything about django-guardian, and can't comment on whether it's been upgraded to support custom Users (there are plenty of apps out there that haven't been). It sounds like you need to take this problem up with the maintainers of django-guardian.
