In django-admin `VIEW_SITE` should redirect to base of hosted site. If
site is not hosted at the root but at some other location, then still
`VIEW_SITE` redirects to absolute root of the site.
Example:
Suppose site is hosted at `http://example.com/mysite/` and I'm using
`SCRIPT_NAME` HTTP header in my proxy server. `{% url 'some_url' %}`
results into `/mysite/some/url/` which is correct. But `site_url` in
django admin is hardcoded to `/`.
Here is the relevant code snippet from
`django.contrib.admin.sites.AdminSite`
{{{#!python
# URL for the "View site" link at the top of each admin page.
site_url = '/'
}}}
