Well, I'm using a theming system -- each user can choose a theme to use, and that choice is attached to their account. Not just the base template but the inner templates for some parts of the site can vary from theme to theme, so I want to run something to the following effect:
def my_r2r(request, template, context): # template is a path like 'app/foo.html' theme = request.user.get_profile().theme theme_template = theme.adjust_theme_path(template) t = loader.select_template((template, theme_template)) return HttpResponse(t.render(RequestContext(request, context))) A custom template loader would be a really neat solution, but I can't see any way to pass it the request in order for it to select the template.
