 The following code is found in TestClient

 {{{
         try:
             request = WSGIRequest(environ)
             # sneaky little hack so that we can easily get round
             # CsrfViewMiddleware.  This makes life easier, and is probably
             # required for backwards compatibility with external tests
 against
             # admin views.
             request._dont_enforce_csrf_checks = True
             response = self.get_response(request)
 }}}

 While this is nice, it makes the test behave in a way that does not really
 verify the site works.

 Some of my views are run when accessed from a desktop program, and the
 desktop program does not send a CSRF token, resulting in a 403 Forbidden
 error, but does not happen when a test is run because of the above code.

 Can we get an option to turn this off?

 Thanks.
