Comment:
Actually it would be nice -- if it's possible -- for the template engine
to be usable, albeit with limited functionality, outside of a Django
project, more precisely without having to configure global Django
settings.
The cache, i18n, etc. features wouldn't work because they need
configuration provided by Django settings. That's an expected limitation
of this feature and it could be documented.
The biggest problem I can see is that we have no good way to test this,
this Django's tests run with configured settings.
Optimistically accepting this requirement, because I think it's a sane
design principle, but without guarantees that it can be met.
This ticket is mostly a matter of figuring out and documenting what can
work and what can't work without settings.
