 Replying to [comment:4 Mariusz Felisiak]:

 I am not sure about your second example:

 > * `management.call_command('pause', **{'for': '1'})` should work the
 same as calling `pause --for 1`

 Based on the documentation, it seems we have to pass `dest` as keyword
 argument name when we define `dest` for arguments.


 >Some command options have different names when using call_command()
 instead of django-admin or manage.py. For example, django-admin
 createsuperuser --no-input translates to call_command('createsuperuser',
 interactive=False). To find what keyword argument name to use for
 call_command(), check the command’s source code for the dest argument
 passed to parser.add_argument().


 Also,  when Django
 
[https://github.com/django/django/blob/e2f778d57947d168a875159e6df075255eea4bbc/django/core/management/__init__.py#L149
 adds required arguments in call command], it search for `dest` in options.
