17756	GeoDjango missing pyspatialite support	Daniel Sokolowski		"Pyspatialite is a modified version of pysqlite that builds sqlite with spatiliate support already in it. This module is easier to install compared to pysqlite especially when utilizing a package installer such as PIP; making GeoDjango support this package is relatively trivial. 


Further Explanation: 
It appears that the emergent way to run django sites is now Virtualenv+PIP. Adding support for pyspatiallite allows one to setup GeoDjango sqlite3 support utilizing PIP and hence allows for the creation of requiremnts.txt which in turn makes the project that much more portable. One can not use PIP to install pysqlite as by default it does not enable loading of sqlite extensions.
