Description

When developing a portable application it would be useful to have a simple way to access the project settings first and fall back to an application-based settings module for defaults.

Application developers can create a settings.py module in the application and instantiate settings using the ApplicationSettingsHolder.

Example:

__init__.py: 

from django.conf import ApplicationSettingsHolder

settings = ApplicationSettingsHolder('myapp.settings')

access settings with: 

from myapp import settings

I'm going to mark this a duplicate of #3591, which is a much more comprehensive approach to the configuration of applications.
