(technically, there is an open jquery-templating ticket about making
the template-tag format customizable:
https://github.com/jquery/jquery-tmpl/issues/74)

i had the same problem in the past (btw. mustache.js also uses the
two-curly-braces notation :-),
and unfortunately the verbatim tag did not solve the problem, because
sometimes you need
to use the django-templating INSIDE the jquery template
.
for example:
"""
.
.
<script type="text/x-jquery-tmpl">
Are you sure to delete {{ name_of_thing }}?
<button>{% trans "YES"%}</button>
<button>{% trans "NO"%}</button>
</script>
"""

here i want the {{ name_of_thing }} to be handled by
jquery-templating, but the translation
should happen using the django-tags.

so either i have to use the {% verbatim %} tag only around the places
where i have javascript-variables
(and not around the whole jquery-template), or i have to do the
translation in python,
and send them in as variables in javascript. both seem to be impractical.

the approach i chose was to use a different variable-syntax
(instead of "{{ thing }}", i use "[[ thing ]]"), and before using the template,
i simply replace those with the correct values. it's not nice, but
still the most practical solution i could find.
