 Hi fizista,

 I'm not sure I understand your request.

 Using `auto_now` (just like any other `default` option) result in usage of
 `DEFAULT` in `ADD FIELD` operations which is required when adding `NOT
 NULL` fields (e.g. `DateTimeField(auto_now=True)`). What should be done
 when such a column is added if we were to drop support for `default`
 altogether?
