Description
In Django 1.3 if we didn't have any databases we had to set DATABASES to {}, but now in 1.4 things blow up with that setting. It would be better if it behaved the same as we can't easily migrate our systems to 1.4. The errors are triggered when a support class or shortcut is used or imported and imports django.db.*.

Ideally it would be nice to see if this can be fixed by examining the places where db/init is being invoked by import and factor those parts that actually need the db, vs those that don't. IOW see what it would take to allow a truly blank databases setting at the global conf level. The simpler fix would be to special check for a blank databases in db/init and set the dummy backend as in global settings.
