I didn't say "model importing". I'm talking about things like the restrictions on what you can import in settings.py, and ticket #8193 (double imports). > If you're referring to the historical importing scheme (i.e., the > version in 0.91, otherwise known as pre-magic-removal), then you need > to go back and look at the archives - there was plenty of confusion on > django-users about why models couldn't be imported literally, and why > model methods didn't always behave themselves, and so on. No, I wasn't talking about magic-removal. That's ancient history :-) > This theme isn't as common as User modification, but asking for a > 'pre-config' signal does pop up every now and then. Which just means that it's been there all along, and is a real issue, but nobody's been all that vocal about it. The occasional asking for a 'pre-config' signal points to the issue being encountered, and those people presumably find workarounds. > Not at all.
