I have this problem: [https://stackoverflow.com/q/52709119/856090]
I want a table to hold both models from fixtures and models generated
dynamically by my Python code.
If I add a new fixture record and then run `loaddata` it may overwrite one
of the dynamically created objects!
I also need to have fixed (not autogenerated) primary keys in order to
refer to object from the fixture from my Python code.
My suggestion:
Assign to the fixture objects primary keys like `2**31 - 1`, `2**31 - 2`,
`2**31 - 3` etc. Then the "dynamically created" objects won't be
overwritten by `loaddata`.
However I do not know how autoincrement value will behave in this
situation.
Please add features to make it possible.
