 Sometimes I find that I need to get the current date in the context of the
 active time zone.

 As far as I understand, the correct way to do this is
 `timezone.localtime(timezone.now()).date()`.

 It'd be nice if we `localtime` would default to using `timezone.now()` is
 no value is given, so that I could simply do
 `timezone.localtime().date()`.


 This should be straightforward to implement, except for the case where
 `settings.USE_TZ = False` because `timezone.now()` would then return a
 naive datetime and `localtime()` would throw an error.
