The settings reference documentation doesn't seem the right place to
invite users to write their own db and cache backends.
Also the actual wording makes the task sound trivial, which is hardly
the case; writing a custom db backend is a very difficult task, and
writing a custom cache backend is full of gotcha.
This was particularly problematic in the chain get_wsgi_application
-> db.connections import -> signal connection -> settings configuration.
Thanks Jon Dufresne for the report.
Removed multiple locales separated by commas variation (that wasn't
working as documented) in favor of simply allowing use of the
``--locale``/``-l`` options more than once for ``makemessages`` and
``compilemessages``.
Thanks Romain Beylerian for the report and Claude, Simon for their help.

Fixed #21012 -- Thread-local caches, like databases.
The issue was that two M2M hidden reverse managers
(related_name ending with a '+') could clash with each other.
Refs #21375 and #15932. Thanks Baptiste.
Added an explicit mention of the exact value ranges for integer type
fields that are safe in all databases supported by Django. Also, put
all value numbers inside double ticks.
Requests made with django.test.Client.login() and logout() respect
defaults defined in django.test.Client instantiation and are processed
through middleware.
Thanks to Loic for the reviews.
The GenericRelation refactoring removed GenericRelations from
model._meta.many_to_many. This had the side effect of disallowing
editable GenericRelations in ModelForms. Editable GenericRelations
aren't officially supported, but if we don't fix this we don't offer any
upgrade path for those who used the ability to set editable=True
in GenericRelation subclass.
Thanks to Trac alias joshcartme for the report and stephencmd and Loic
for working on this issue.
Also removed a sentence that was incorrect: raising a
`ValidationError` inside `Form.clean` doesn't clear the
`cleaned_data` attribute.
Thanks to loic84 and timograham for the review.
Exposing the level name (e.g. "info") makes it possible to prepend
something to the class name. For example, Twitter Bootstrap has
an alert-info class. This class can now be added to the message
using `class="alert-{{ message.level_tag }}".
Because the level_tag was on the end of the `tags` property, it
could not be used in this fashion when extra_tags were given.
Replaced the custom, untested memoize with a similar decorator from Python's
3.2 stdlib. Although some minor performance degradation (see ticket), it is
expected that in the long run lru_cache will outperform memoize once it is
implemented in C.
Thanks to EvilDMP for the report and Baptiste Mispelon for the idea of
replacing memoize with lru_cache.
Reorganized the MySQLdb section into a "MySQL DB API Drivers" section that describes both MySQLdb and MySQL Connector/Python. Included description of the Django adaptors for these DB API drivers.
