which is NOT what you'll find in django's doc nor in about 99+% of the
available snippets, pluggable apps and other available source code
examples which all use the same pattern as the OP.
I'm not the last to be somewhat vocal about antipatterns and bad form
and I totally agree on your comment about programming by permutation,
but whether you use one or another (both legal) form to call
render_to_response is a matter of personal preference.
FWIW, I prefer the "canonical" way which let me build my context dict
outside of the call to render_to_response ;)
