Function-based generic views provided an "extra_context" keyword argument to add variables to the template context. It appears that under the initial implementation of class-based generic views in Django 1.3, there are two major differences:
1. To add extra context, you have to subclass and override get_context_data(); and, 2. Extra variables are added to the "params" context variable, not directly (so to speak) to the context. Do I have this right? If so, #1 seems to violate the DRY principle. Why not add an "extra_context" attribute to the TemplateResponseMixin class?
