Might be the best thing.

How *do* you track these down? The warning doesn't say where the file
was opened.

Anyway, I suspect the problem is with the call to imp.find_module(),
which is a depreciated function in Python 3.4:

It ends with:

   file = open(file_path, mode, encoding=encoding)
   return file, file_path, (suffix, mode, type_)

djcelery.loaders.find_related_module() calls this function and ignores
the result. Which obviously means the file doesn't get closed.

    try:
        imp.find_module(related_name, app_path)
    except ImportError:
        return

    return importlib.import_module('{0}.{1}'.format(app, related_name))
    
Need to think about if it is worth fixing, and what the best fix is.
