Description
app_label, model_name (e.g. ('news', 'story')) is often passed around internally in our codebase.
The attached patch would be nice in Django, since otherwise we do a little hula to get the ContentType object. Doing a direct query would miss the handy cache ContentTypeManager includes.

To be clear, in my report here, by "our codebase", I mean the codebase for pegasusnews.com, not Django itself.

This feature was added as ContentTypeManager.get_by_natural_key.
It's a side effect of a large patch, 35cc439228cd32dfa7a3ec919db01a8a5cd17d33.

Adds get_for_app_label_and_model_name to ContentTypeManager. Obviously a terrible name.
