This has nothing to do with the argument here.  The account in question, as
already stated many times, has no access to the admin site.  That's the
whole point of this discussion.

This has to do with deliberately misleading users.  I've been stuck by this
at least once in my django career, and artemy has too.  People make
mistakes, it happens.

I especially don't understand this statement.  The whole point of
django-developers is to discuss development of django, and by extension
(because there are no other lists, as far as I'm aware) the contrib
modules.  Everyone comes here to help make the project better, to help fit
their needs.  That's the whole point, as far as I'm concerned.

A reasonable suggestion was made, in which a few people came back and said
that by doing this improvement, it would open a security issue.  Myself, and
others have stated that in fact, this would not be a security issue, and
have provided examples.

At this point, I'll absolutely never forget to check the is_staff flag
purely because I've been following this discussion.  What I don't understand
is why there is such a huge opposition to the change.
