11838	"Make syncdb understand ""initialdata"" directory"	Deniz Dogan	Brandon Konkle	In many projects I often find the need to load my data from several separate JSON formatted data dumps.  This is because it's easier to manage dumps from different models separately.  Unfortunately, `syncdb` only understands one thing and that is a file named `initial_data.json`.  I think it would be better if `syncdb` looked for that file, uses it if it finds it, otherwise looks for a directory named `initialdata` and loads all of the files from that directory.
