I would recommend using one of asset managers that provide JS/CSS versioning instead. Their aren't very hard to install. You can compare some of the more popular at djangopackages.com: http://djangopackages.com/grids/g/asset-managers/
In most cases you get things like JS/CSS combining and compression as an extra bonus. Definitly something you will want in the long run.
