 Hi Lorenzo

 I don't think this is a bug but a new feature potentially. I think the
 issue can be roughly demonstrated like:

 {{{
 class CustomManager(models.Manager):
     use_in_migrations = False

     def get_queryset(self):
         # This will fail!
         return super().get_queryset().filter(author="Roald Dahl")

 class CustomManagerModel(models.Model):
     objects = CustomManager()


 class NewModel(models.Model):
     customs = models.ManyToManyField('CustomManagerModel',
 related_name='new', blank=True)
 }}}

 Then you run `dumpdata` for `NewModel` with the `--all` flag
 (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.1/ref/django-admin/#cmdoption-
 dumpdata-all) but this means you use the base manager for that model, not
 all related models

 I think this use case is quite niche but feel free to propose it on the
 [https://forum.djangoproject.com/c/internals/5 Forum] and see if others
 agree this should be supported
