Comment (by rico):
I think every admin template should extend a "base" template.
This way it would be possible to override templates on the project level
(and maybe through external apps also).
As an example, my solution for customizing the admin index:
* Move the original '''admin/index.html''' template to
'''django/contrib/admin/templates/admin/base'''
* Create the '''admin/index.html''' template that extends
'''admin/base/index.html'''
{{{
{# admin/index.html #}
{% extends "admin/base/index.html" %}
{# ... customizations here ... #}
}}}
* On the project level, '''admin/index.html''' would extend
'''admin/base/index.html''' and override the one bundled with the admin
app
I can take this ticket if this solution is reasonable.
