Description

add a reasonable default to the django settings importer. some of us write notable quantities of helper scripts for our django apps, and i can see no reason not to try to open the default settings.py before kicking off the "no DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE set" error message.

Patch needs improvement: set

I doubt this is a really good idea, since there's not necessarily a good set of defaults, but could you at least attach a proper patch (created from the root of the Django tree) so that we can see what you're trying to change here. That will help evaluate things better.
