Comment (by prestontimmons):
Although partials aren't reversible by the "path.to.view" syntax, I don't
think Django should blow up on them. Some parts of our code base use
partials extensively.
A simple fix might be to create `lookup_str` from the original function
whenever a pattern callback is a partial. The behavior would end up the
same as if update_wrapper were called.
A possible patch is here: https://github.com/django/django/pull/2601/
What do you think?
