Example:
{{{
urlpatterns += patterns('',
(r'^\w+/', include(admin.site.urls),),
)
}}}
All links generated by the admin site with this url show a 'x'
for example : `/x/<app_name>/<model_name>/`
instead of the result of the matching wild card 'ABC' from
`ABC/<app_name>/<model_name>`
the problem is that reverse can not know what to put in the wild card
without having the path or the request as context.
Solution: add an optional parameter to reverse which is the request and
the reverse can happen with the context of the request which is found
acceptable in case the request parameter is not none.

Comment:
What's the use case for allowing the admin to be accessed at a wildcard
URL?
