Comment (by MarkusH):
Tim, neither patch is guaranteed to work when a user has not applied all
`contenttypes` migrations, as the model used inside the
`update_contenttypes` is from the global apps, not from the latest applied
migration state (see #24100 for that).
Anyway, I'm ok with making it a public API if we put a `.. warning::` box
around the docs and state the potential data loss due to cascading.
