Description

Despite being a little more verbose, the new Function API can/should be now leveraged to replace most if not all of GeoQuerySet custom methods. This will generally simplify the code of the Django GIS module. I'm currently working on this replacement.

I made some good progress and was able to publish a first pull request: ​https://github.com/django/django/pull/4027

The good news is that we might be able to completely remove GeoQuerySet/GeoManager by Django 2.1!

I still need someone to work on porting the Oracle GIS backend...
