 Currently, the documentation for
 
[http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/auth/#django.contrib.auth.views.logout
 django.contrib.auth.views.logout] states

 ''redirect_field_name: The name of a GET field containing the URL to
 redirect to after log out. Overrides next_page if the given GET parameter
 is passed.''

 However,
 
[http://code.djangoproject.com/browser/django/trunk/django/contrib/auth/views.py#L69
 as far as I can tell from staring at Trunk], this is only the case is
 next_page isn't also set. I appreciate it makes sense most of the time for
 only one to be provided, but as
 [http://botland.oebfare.com/logger/django/2010/8/13/7/#10:45-2424614
 someone on IRC] discovered, you can supply both (erroneously or not), at
 which point the documentation suggests the wrong one takes precedence.
