Well... This is the whole point of a model layer : centralizing model-
related stuff where it belongs. Also note that Python being highly
dynamic, you can add new methods at runtime to an existing class,
which is very handy when using third-part applications:
# mymodel.py
from thirdpart.model import Person
def get_age(self):
return calculate_age(self.birth_date)
Person.get_age = get_age
