South to Migrations detail

Description

In South, automatically generated migrations that add models fire the function send_create_signal(), which among other things, results in a ContentType record being written for the new model. Except that it doesn't, because it actually just queues up that signal to be fired at the end of the whole process by the function really_send_create_signal().

This is trouble for subsequent data migrations that are counting on those ContentType records. To date I've had to manually change send_create_signal() to really_send_create_signal() to immediately fire that action and set up future data migrations correctly. Obviously, that is an ugly process.

My question is: In Django 1.7, where Migrations replaces the need for South, how will this function?
