Thanks for the feedback! Glad to know I'm on the trail of something that's actually needed :)
I haven't delved in to Django internals enough yet (still really just getting started with Django) to evaluate what can be done with lower- level changes. And while I briefly went down the path of a separate thread, I wrote it off as too finicky. I think I'll continue with the current plan, but look in to ways to making it more efficient (I imagine I could do some intelligent caching of items that are 'required' all the time). As it is, there should be zero overhead if the templatetags aren't used at all. I've recently added same-server absolute path requirements and am considering re-working to the SETTINGS dict to be less stupid. Anything else that would be useful right off the bat?
