20817	Add support for html email messages through django.core.mail.send_mail()	Justin Michalicek	nobody	"I have run into several instances where it makes sense to be able to send html email messages through django.core.mail.send_mail().  Allowing this would also be consistent with the mail_admins() and mail_managers() functions.

When adding this I did see that the comments for send_mail() say that the api is frozen.  I had previously asked about this feature on the django-developers google group in this thread https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/django-developers/_mXKP9JZzK0 so I hope this is not a problem.

I have forked the repo and created a feature branch at https://github.com/jmichalicek/django/tree/add_send_mail_html_message which has the feature, updated documentation, and test cases."	New feature	closed	Core (Mail)	dev	Normal	fixed	mail, send_mail	timograham@…	Unreviewed	1	0	0	1	0	0
