If you only decorate selected views with {{{csrf_protect}}}, any non-
protected POST that ends up resulting in a 404 response returns 403
Forbidden instead.
This is both unwanted and potentially puzzling to developers. Either the
{{{flatpage}}} view should not be decorated (it seems incapable of
altering the application's state) or the above should be documented both
in the CSRF section and in the flatpages section.
