16628	Provide a class to hold application-based settings	Matt Magin	nobody	"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: 

{{{
#!div style=""font-size: 80%""
!__init!__.py:
  {{{#!python
  from django.conf import ApplicationSettingsHolder
  
  settings = ApplicationSettingsHolder('myapp.settings')
  }}}
access settings with:
  {{{#!python
  from myapp import settings
  }}}
}}}"	New feature	closed	Core (Other)	1.3	Normal	duplicate			Unreviewed	1	0	0	0	0	0
