through sounds a little odd to me, as Vacation is the table 'through' which
the m2m is made. Shouldn't it be 'in_between' or something the like here?
(As Vacation is kind of 'in between' Person and Location)
just my 2p.

Given the example code in the ticket:
from django.db import models
class Person(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
vacations = models.ManyToManyField('Location', through='Vacation',
blank=True)
class Location(models.Model):
city = models.CharField(max_length=100
