You're missing the point of these things. The whole idea is that they aren't settings people will have to change. In fact, they should be encouraged not to, by and large. Sometimes overriding will be possible and necessary (e.g. there are a few default date formats), but Marc's correct to think about them as locale settings. We don't keep translated strings in settings.py and these exist at the same level of configurability.
