-------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
The section on Proxy models does not say anything about how system
permissions are affected.

There have been known inconsistency issues with this for 5 years now
([ticket:11154]).

Irrespective of the resolution of the inconsistencies I feel it is
imperative that they are at least mentioned in the documentation. Please
explain how proxy models and model permissions interact.

Comment (by timgraham):

A [https://github.com/django/django/pull/4681 pull request] (with some
documentation) to address #11154 and #17904 was closed as the submitter
couldn't address the security concerns raised there. Someone else is
welcome to follow up and try to address them.
