Thanks for documenting your trouble, I ran into the same problem today. The kludge solution that I came up with was: 'yes yes | python manage.py migrate' in my deployment script -- decidedly suboptimal.
My preference would be for the yes/no decision of dropping stale models to be recorded within the migration itself at creation time, analogous to the choice of a backfill value a new column without a default value on existing rows.
