14720	Settings imported twice as separate modules when manage.py is used	Piotr Czachur	Brett Haydon	"Some people may be surprised that settings are loaded twice under different names in sys.modules:
 - import 1) as 'settings' (manage.py, imported in same-dir fashion)
 - import 2) as ""projectname.settings"" (import_module() triggered when LazySettings is accessed first time; '''projectname/!__init!__.py is loaded''')

Simple solution is to replace
{{{
    import settings # Assumed to be in the same directory.
}}}
with
{{{
    # Project module is known during manage.py creation, because it's django-admin startproject parameter.
    from project_module import settings
}}}
'''This change affects package/module loading order:
projecname/!__init!__.py will be executed during importing of settings inside manage.py.'''
