Comment (by Chris7):
An additional error arises for that case:
{{{
>>> from django.conf import settings
>>> settings.configure()
>>> import django
>>> django.setup()
>>> from django.contrib.contenttypes.fields import GenericForeignKey
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/home/chris/.virtualenvs/wooey/local/lib/python2.7/site-
packages/django/contrib/contenttypes/fields.py", line 5, in <module>
from django.contrib.contenttypes.models import ContentType
File "/home/chris/.virtualenvs/wooey/local/lib/python2.7/site-
packages/django/contrib/contenttypes/models.py", line 159, in <module>

packages/django/db/models/base.py", line 103, in __new__
"application was loaded. " % (module, name))
RuntimeError: Model class django.contrib.contenttypes.models.ContentType
doesn't declare an explicit app_label and either isn't in an application
in INSTALLED_APPS or else was imported before its application was loaded
}}}
I understand this isn't a normal situation. But should importing the GFK
field really cause the application loading logic to execute?
