Thanks for ideas, Malcolm.
I am slightly against "create_db_table", cause the name implies that
it controls "creating DB tables", while in fact it controls ANY
operations on DB tables - CREATE/ALTER/DROP TABLE, CREATE/DROP INDEX,
etc. But I fully agree that my name is not better and I am open for
suggestions. Maybe... "manage_db_table", and the explanation in the
documents like "this Meta option whether the table can be managed when
using manage.py commands"?
Also I'll see if I can add any tests using call_command() function,
this could probably work (according to some other testcases).
