8952	"Refactor a Django ""site"" to be just another view function"	simon	Y3K	At the moment middleware applies globally (unless you use the decorator_from_middleware hack). A Django powered site is essentially a thing that takes an HTTP request and returns an HTTP response. We should refactor things a bit so the highlest level of a Django site is just another view, which can compose bits of middleware and a URL dispatcher. This way Django applications end up composed of nested view functions, URL dispatchers and middleware which is really elegant. It won't be easy to do this due to lots of existing code expecting things to be how they are at the moment, but it's worth investigating.
