Just read James Bennett's excellent article here:
http://www.b-list.org/weblog/2007/nov/01/django-tips-template-loading-and-rendering/

In it he mentioned request_context and the context_instance parameter
to render_to_response and mentions that many people he talks to don't
know of it's existence.

Maybe the reason a lot of people don't know about the context_instance
is that it isn't mentioned here: 
http://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2005/sep/24/newshortcuts/
or here: http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/shortcuts/

and they are the top two results in Google for 'render_to_response'

Although it is mentioned here:
http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/templates_python/#subclassing-context-requestcontext

This page doesn't even show up on the first page of results so it
isn't surprising people miss it. Worth adding a mention to the docs?
