It just has a slightly different and simpler API, and an import that does not involve generic views. It also *doesn't* do some things that direct_to_template *does* do, like the params dictionary. I think it needs to be simple and obvious enough to be used early in the tutorials, before generic views have even been introduced. But it's certainly an optional part of the CSRF stuff - just something to make using RequestContext easier and simpler. Luke -- "Smoking cures weight problems...eventually..."
