Using Django 1.0.2 final.
Problem:
Permissions are automatically sorted by application name, then by the
permission, then by the model. This makes setting up permissions look
like this:
{{{
polls | choice | Can add choice
polls | poll | Can add poll
polls | choice | Can change choice
polls | poll | Can change poll
polls | choice | Can delete choice
polls | poll | Can delete poll
}}}
Instead I would like it to be
{{{
polls | choice | Can add choice
polls | choice | Can change choice
polls | choice | Can delete choice
polls | poll | Can add poll
polls | poll | Can change poll
polls | poll | Can delete poll
}}}
I found this is how the system used to work according to tickets #7115 and
#8246. I don't think 8246 is correct. This should be a one line change
to '''django/contrib/auth/models.py''' as follows to sort by application,
then model, then permission.
{{{
# pre 7115 ordering = ('content_type', 'codename')
# post 8246 ordering = ('content_type__app_label', 'codename')
ordering = ('content_type__app_label', 'content_type', 'codename')
}}}
