This seems to be based on a misunderstanding. The error message reported when there's a problem is a little misleading and we're intending to fix that (that's the subject of #6587). However, Django does not look in the directory you've indicated. It looks in the templatetags/ in each application registered via the INSTALLED_APPS setting. That's enough flexibility for our purposes (since you could create an application that only contains custom template tags, for example).
