I'd like to suggest adding this function to the bunch to encourage people to prefer its use in a number of situations over cumbersome solutions.

OK, I'll accept this.

At the general level we try include only those function that have wide utility, in order to keep the scope manageable. (It's normally quite easy to add a needed function wrapper to a user's project.)

This seems quite handy to me, so +1, but I'm not a big GeoDjango user up to now, so CCing Paolo (since you are and you already commented on the PR.)

It's fine for me to continue reviewing this PR, I wait for Nicco to integrate the documentation and proceed to review again.
