That might work, but I was hoping the change_list was a generic class based view I could subclass and use in my own urls.py for my app, but looking into the source (site-packages\django-1.3-py2.7.egg\django\contrib\admin\views\main.py) of the admin it's not clear at all about how to approach it.
Any clues on how to subclass the admin views?
