"poetry init --dependency django" does nothing

Issue

If I do:

poetry init --dependency django

It walks me through the same guide as normal, and if when it asks if I went to define dependencies I select "no", then it doesn't add Django to pyproject.toml as a dependency, so --dependency django effectively did nothing.

It should either:

• Edit the guide to ask if you want to specify any further dependencies, and maybe indicate that it's going to install Django anyway; or
• Error saying "--dependency is only compatible with --no-interaction"

Is this still relevant? If so, what is blocking it? Is there anything you can do to help move it forward?
