I think it's worth continuing to allow running the Django test suite without GDAL installed
Absolutely. We might replace or complement the HAS_GEOS/HAS_GDAL flags by some HAS_GEOLIBS flag.

To ease running the test suite by casual contributors, I think it's worth continuing to allow running the Django test suite without GDAL installed. In that case, we could skip all
gis_testsinstead of selectively skipping tests in that package.
