Description
Theses two generic views don't manage next/previous day/week.
It could be usefull and more coherent with archive_month and archive_year views which deal with these feature.

I've attached a patch that tries to tackle the issue.
One complication: There isn't a week attribute on datetime objects, or at least I'm not aware of it. Typically, I use dt.isocalendar()[1] to get week numbers. But that's a pretty big hassle to do in your templates, so I'm not sure that just passing out a datetime object, as is done with the other date_based generic views, will work here.
If you check out my patch, what I tried was passing out dictionaries instead. Each with a 'year' and 'week' attribute that contains integers, and a 'date' key that hooks you up with the datetime object, if you happen to want that as well.
Dumb idea?

Palewire: I think you can use "day.strftime('%U')" instead of "day.isocalendar()[1]". With the second choice, you can't do an easy navigation because the week numbers of day.isocalendar() are different from the result of the '%U'.
Once django itself uses the '%U' to know what week we are, using it in the dates will be better. I will send a patch.
I will make the tests and documentation for it too, maybe it can appear in the django1.3?

I'm totally open to alternatives and if your fix dovetails with a broader change to the Django core, all the better.

Patch needs to be updated for class-based views.

An addition to the archive_week generic view that adds next_week and previous_week objects to the context for easier pagination in your templates
