Comment:

 Thanks for that patch.  In general, I think it is important that we
 document well how to change projects to be CSP-compatible. The easier we
 make this, the more projects will use CSP, the safer people will be. A few
 quick notes:

 * I agree with PaulM that we could accept having the admin not CSP-
 compatible. However, we should very clearly document that CSP currently
 breaks with the admin. If I remember correctly, mozilla's django-csp
 allows one to add excluded paths, so that one can have both CSP and the
 admin enabled. That does reduce effectiveness, of course, but is better
 than no CSP.
 * With in-line javascript no longer allowed, it would be useful to point
 out `<script type="application/json"></script>` to people, which if my
 memory serves me right makes it easy to include a bit of json in your
 templates without violating CSP. Not 100% sure here though.
 * That can also help for the `{% url %}` problem described in comment:2,
 but perhaps there are other suggestions we can make.
 * This also deserves a place in the 1.8 release notes and in the security
 documentation (we have a specific page for that).
