Oh maybe, I didn't fleshed that response out appropriately. What I wanted to say, is that his regex-light approach might be worth-while implemented in a third-party package such as described by others and me before inclusion in Django core (which also prefer sooner rather than later). > [1]: I myself have great aversion to the approach where URL patterns are > spread out over the codebase, but I know others are greatly prefer the > approach that Flask takes. > I tended to have this kind of aversion as well but after a while of using the UrlMixin, I am in love with it. I think kind of this adaptation <http://www.dict.cc/englisch-deutsch/adaptation.html> stems from the fact that in 99%, 1 URL corresponds to 1 View and vice-versa. Remove the view, you remove the URL as well and vice versa. Put it differently, it makes no sense to separate URl and view in different locations. That's at least our experience while doing Web-based applications and APIs for years.
