Comment:

 Hello,

 I tried to tackle this ticket as I believe it would still be a pretty
 useful addition to `makemigrations`.
 During development, I often see developers struggle with the manual steps
 to re-generate a migration while they are still iterating on their
 approach.

 Here is the approach I've taken
 https://github.com/django/django/pull/15669
 I tried to keep the implementation rather straightforward.

 The main drawback I see is that it will add a new edge case when one
 updates a migration that has already been applied. This will create a bit
 of confusion, as it will become more tedious to undo the updated
 migration, since the reverse operations will try to undo things that
 weren't initially applied.
