Answer 1

Based on @Augusto's answer, I did the following with a model manager and using the authtools library. This is in querysets.py:

from django.db.models import Q
from authtools.models import UserManager as AuthUserManager

class UserManager(AuthUserManager):
    def get_users_with_perm(self, perm_name):
        return self.filter(
                Q(user_permissions__codename=perm_name) |
                Q(groups__permissions__codename=perm_name)).distinct()

And then in models.py:

from django.db import models
from authtools.models import AbstractEmailUser
from .querysets import UserManager


class User(AbstractEmailUser):
   objects = UserManager()
