5793	Allow custom attributes in Meta classes	eikke@…		"In some cass it is useful to be able to store meta information on models inside the model class. In Django the Meta subclass is used to achieve this. Trying to add a custom attribute to a model's Meta inner class results in an exception though, thrown from django.db.models.options, which does indeed check any valid attribute names and raises an exception when unknown names are found.
Is there any reason for this somewhat strange behaviour, not to allow a developer to add non-standard meta information to a model class (which can later on be used in eg view code)?
