render_to_response(template_name, context_instance=None, **kwargs) is
a shortcut over this:
t = get_template(template_name)
c = context_instance or Context()
c.update(kwargs)
return HttpResponse(t.render(c))
So passing in context_instance is still shorter.
If you still don't like it, you could use
django.views.generic.direct_to_template as the last line instead of
render_to_response.
I guess I'm old school-- I still generally use the longer form. :)
