Comment (by Simon Charette):

 > A project state used by migrations autodetector doesn't include auto-
 created model, so the only fix that I can imagine would require including
 through_pk_type in the ManyToManyField.deconstruct() but it's also tricky
 and error-prone.

 That seems like the only solution to me as well.

 Having a `through_pk: Field(primary_key=True)` option instead of
 `through_pk_type` seems more flexible though as it would allow easier
 customization e.g. `though_pk=UUIDField(default=uuid.uuid4,
 primary_key=True)`. I guess it could also serve as a way to define a
 composite primary key on the `from_field` and `to_field` if we ever manage
 to add support for that e.g. `through_pk=CompositePrimaryKey('author',
 'book')`.
