> Idea of dbviews.py rather than models.py is good, but restricts in
importing the views from models. When I tried to remove the custom-created
model for my SQL views from models.py though still imported it from
another model, this model still made it into the output of manage.py.

should cover all the bases - DROP TABLE in sqldelete, CREATE INDEX/DROP
INDEX, even sqlflush.

documentation, is based on the trunk Django, and covers hopefully all the
commands (except sqlcustom obviously).
Can you please explain what you mean here? Especially by "but restricts in
importing the views from models"!
Actually using dbviews would never generate a table in the DB, so there is
no need for removing it. Create the views by using the sqlcustom files.
