I'll have a closer look at your suggestions for questions 1 and 2.

The number of images, if any, may vary from article to article.

An application can be independent of a project -- there's no need for
it to be contained in a project's directory. All that matters is that
the application's parent directory is on sys.path so that "import" will
find it.
So "Apps/" can just be an empty directory initially, then use

Hi All
If one uses mysite/article/slug as a url, then duplicate slugs would
be a problem. Ok, for most sites mysite/article/month/day/slug fixes

would you go down the /mysite/article/234/slug route?
Any suggestions?

That means a custom manipulator that only mentions the fields you want

None of the documented method works for me:
The only way I found to make it works (affter having suffered a lot)
is:
MyRelatedModel.objects.all().extra(
select={'my_field':
'SELECT my_field
FROM myapplication_mymodel
WHERE myapplication_mymodel.id =
myapplication_myrelatedmodel.mymodel
As described in ticket #1839, the solution for me at any rate was to
make sure I didn't have any field names with the same name as a model
class name (disregarding case). So in your code, rename agent to
something else, like listingAgent.
