26911	Remove NoReverseMatch silencing in RedirectView	Jerome Leclanche	K2	"Relevant code: https://github.com/django/django/blob/bc53af13cbf09b0cbac945426c2d51d0ca52fff3/django/views/generic/base.py#L176-L180 (failing the if on line 196)

I'm taking the time to open this ticket because this wasted me a lot of time. I had a typo in my `pattern_name`, which resulted in a 410 rather than an exception (as one would expect).

The documentation only says a 410 will be returned if ""the resulting location is empty, or the url argument is None"", but doesn't mention that it can mask errors.

This design should be reconsidered (per the zen of python, errors should never pass silently). Or at the very least, documented."	Cleanup/optimization	closed	Generic views	1.10	Normal	fixed		grzegorz.tezycki@…	Accepted	1	0	0	1	0	0
