Yes, you are right. What I meant was:
class MyModel(models.Model):
...
MyModel.CONST = MyModel.objects.get(id=1)

What is a custom descriptor? I have never used it. Is it something
like a property?

I have seen both cls and klass in django code. I prefer mine, because
it clearly indicates, that the objects is not an instance, but a class
(and therefore type instance, right?).

I'll definitely try that.
