26190	Return final management command result from call_command	Claude Paroz	nobody	"Currently, the result returned from the `handle` method of a management command is directed by default to the console in the `execute` method by writing to `self.stdout`, but it is not returned from the `execute` method, so `call_command` does not receive it either.

I would suggest to adapt this behavior and also return this output from `execute` (and consequently by `call_command` so we can easily get access to this result from `call_command`). The behavior when calling the command by the command line would be unchanged.

I even thought about not writing this result to `self.stdout` when the command is called by `call_command`, but this would be backwards incompatible and I don't see a good deprecation path for this."	New feature	closed	Core (Management commands)	dev	Normal	fixed			Ready for checkin	1	0	0	0	0	0
