Definitely +1, as this has bitten me far too often. It would be nice however
to also depend less on the ('hacky', as Glyph also noted)
DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE environment variable. We shouldn't need an env
variable to run a python website, and it certaintly shouldn't screw up
settings loading when set accidently. The new proposed setup_settings
function accepts a path, but listens to the env variable first, and if that
is not set it it wil still try to load 'settings'. Why not listen to the
path that is provided so I can pass 'mysite.settings.production' for
example? And if it's not provided, listen to DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE for
backwards compatibility.
