Comment (by Mehmet Dogan):
Here is what I propose in terms of working around the backward
compatibility that seems to have kept it from being solved for so long.
1) define a global setting, say:
`OBJECT_PERMISSION_FALLBACK_TO_MODEL=False`. This is to help maintain the
default behavior (unless the setting is changed of course).
2) (as mentioned in the above comment) define a keyword argument at the
method level for occasional override, say: `fallback_to_model=None`.
Default value of `None` means it will be ignored in favor of the global
setting, otherwise, it will take precedence.
I can work on a patch if found reasonable.
