It's useful to have some templates with the same name of another one,

override the base site django default.
but If I want to add a word in the title of my base_site.html I need
to copy the entire content of the base_site.html I am overriding, and
I cannot extend it to avoid that with am {% extend
"admin/templates/base_site.html" %}
or an {% extend super %}
I'm not sure if it's what you want, but... I've got a base ui
application with a ui/base.html. Several blocks for the title, logo,
the sidebar, footer, javascript, etc.
Several applications extend that base template. But multiple sites also
want to extend it to change the global logo and footer... The sites
effectively have to override the base template.
The solution: in my ui project I have a ui/realbase.html that is
extended by ui/base.html. The only code in ui/base.html is the
"extends" line! So overriding that one is inexpensive.
The other applications can happily extend ui/base.html and fill in the
blocks that are really from ui/realbase.html. And my site can override
ui/base.html and fill in the logo block and the footer block (which are
normally not touched by the applications).
I hope I'm clear enough without a code example. The code, should you
want to take a look, is at http://pypi.python.org/pypi/lizard-ui
