Comment (by Adam Johnson):
Hey, not to discourage here, but there was a lot of support for the
alternative suggestion in the new-features discussion:
https://github.com/django/new-features/issues/137#issuecomment-4182093695
. The alternative is to extend `User.has_perm()` to accept `Permission`
objects directly, so users don't need to think about formatting at all.
Here’s a PoC PR with some tests;
https://github.com/django/django/pull/21071
I think this is a better approach, and we could look into rolling back the
new property in favour of it…
