Replying to [comment:13 lukeplant]:
> @acdha - your admin.py looks very different from the Django's trunk
`ModelAdmin.changelist_view`, so it's very difficult to see exactly what
you are needing to change in the admin. In fact I cannot find any released
version of Django that looks close to a simply copy-paste job for this.
That's not actually my code - it was convenient to reference as a public,
popular app which needs to customize the admin - but I've run into many
cases where it would have been extremely handy to be able to customize the
template context before rendering. In this case it would be easy to
refactor these classes to have something like a `get_context` method to
make that specific need easier to handle but it feels like `csrf_protect`
should be able to operate lazily as it would otherwise seem to make
TemplateResponse useless for many cases where it would otherwise be a good
solution.
