 (James Aylett on stage at duth)

 If you accidentally use {% load static %} instead of {% load staticfiles
 %} you won't take advantage of storage engines. However, 3rd-party apps
 won't know if the staticfiles library is installed or not.

 One solution he mentioned is having {% load static %} match the behavior
 of {% load admin_static %} (where it uses staticfiles only if it's
 installed), but that would probably involve core importing code from
 contrib (usually a no-no).

 Another option he gave was merging staticfiles into core. He thought it
 might be contentious, but I think is actually a better idea.
