28367	Document how to override management commands	stephanm	Joe Krzystan	"Hi,

I have one question where I didn't find the answer in the docs.

If I  have two django apps:
 - app1
 - app2

and both apps have lets say a custom management command called:
 - importdata

Actually I do the following:

In every app I prepend the custom command name with the app name,
so in my case the custom commands would be named:

 - app1_importdata (for app1)
 - app2_importdata (for app2)

But what is the official ""correct"" way?

Does there exist some sort of namespace like:
 - app1.importdata
 - app2.importdata

or it is planned (in Django 2.x)?

If I have two external apps not programmed by myself
and both have one same-named management command...
how do I solve the problem?
