The default files copied to STATIC_ROOT when you run python manage.py collectstatic should have two versions- file.js and file.min.js (similarly for css files). As far as I can see, this happens only for the preinstalled apps (like admin/actions.min.js) but not for user installed apps. Serbing minified static files is important for all production environments for pretty much everyone who uses vanilla django. Though there are packages out there to do this, I feel it is important enough and has enough use cases to be added to the django core.
I can start working on this if it is accepted. Let me know what you think!
