Description

We had one model that was using the decorator rather than the explicit call and after adding adminplus that model disappeared from our admin screens.

Changing it over to the other call worked although I thought I read that it should have worked so not sure I think there must be a bug there.. Happy to investigate further if someone can point me in the right direction.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue with Django 1.8.7 and django-adminplus using the decorator-based registration, then compare it with the explicit registration call that works. Trace the admin registration path to determine why the decorated model disappears from the admin screens. Done means decorator registration behaves like the explicit call, with a regression test covering both forms.
