Comment:
I think it's not strictly needed as setuptools
[https://pythonhosted.org/setuptools/setuptools.html#setting-the-zip-safe-
flag seems to have some autodetection]. I guess I'm concerned that adding
it without any comment or explanation will cause readers to copy and paste
it in their own projects without understanding the ramifications (e.g.
projects without templates, static files, or similar assets may not need
it, I think).
I'm not sure if Django's docs are the place for education about setuptools
options like this. Any opinions?
