Sort of, but not really because I wanted something that worked even using the built-in views (the problem manifested when I started working with the login views). I didn't have a problem passing my settings into the templates for the views I created myself, but I didn't have access to the same arbitrary settings in the templates created for the built-in views. I had to use middleware to intercept the context and add the variables, even when using views I didn't write.
It seemed like a fair amount of extra work just to make sure all my templates had a "media_base_url" variable! :) I've actually changed to using plain CGI (rather than manage.py runserver) in development so that I don't have to muck about with proxying the Django server and other such [*bleep*]...subtleties...to get a coherent environment where I can test in the GWT hosted mode browser, desktop Firefox, and the iPod Touch, all at the same time. Thanks!
