Description

In the ​template documentation on playing with context objects, it is showed that deleting the key foo then accessing it again returns an empty string.

What actually happens: a KeyError is raised:

>>> from django.template import Context
>>> c = Context({'foo': 'bar'})
>>> c['foo']
'bar'
>>> del c['foo']
>>> c['foo']
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
KeyError: 'foo'
