Doesn't Swish-e pose an incompatibility for licensing? Everything Django

Swish-e grants a special exemption from automatically GPL'ing linked
programs which use the libswish-e API interface:

http://swish-e.org/license.htmll

Plus, this would be a contributed app -- or possible something distributed separately from Django -- that requires you to install Swish-E separately. I don't see this being a core part of Django.

Seriously, though, this licensing stuff sucks :(
