I agree entirely. I don't want to have to use an sql dump because I'm terrible with SQL and try to avoid it ;-) You might be able to edit start-myproject.py to accept an argument that runs a script after the server has started, or that maybe checks to see if the tables are empty and if so, runs the script. What I'd really like to be able to do is to add a section to my model that says "when the tables are created, insert these values" which would be very useful during development. Or even a dev-data.cfg file, that auto loads data when in dev mode. (I've got into the habit that as soon as I write my model, I write out a set of values that can be used to fill the tables for development purposes, that's what I've had to start adding using the WebConsole).
