Creating temporary 302 redirects are currently possibly right now. The TODO is for being able to specify both 301 and 302 redirects through the admin. > 2) Being able to specify extra kwargs to pass to a view so that it would be > possible to change the functionality of a view without adding a new model to > store the different options (or have to change the urlconfig and push new > code every time). You can still specify additional urls in urls.py as the framework allows you to do normally; django-urls simply appends to that list of urls. There is also a TODO for adding the ability to edit views through the Django admin using the same editor GitHub uses. These should cover the use cases you describe.
