What sort of things do you need to do that can't be done before sending back the response? Most of the things I can think of (such as the time taken to send the response) are out of scope for Django, since it lives at a layer below the stuff that actually interacts with the webserver. So if this were possible with poking at the deep internals, it would involve looking at the handlers. It might be possible to do something by, for example, hooking into some parts of the WSGI framework. You'd be subclassing Django's existing WSGI handler (or writing your own) in that case. Short answer is, no, it's not really possible, unless you're willing to poke at the internals and write your own HTTP handler class.
