What are their pros and cons?  How often do you use them when you're
coding?

The more I code in django the less I find generic views to be useful
shortcuts (direct to template being the exception).

My biggest complaints are:
* You don't end up saving many keystrokes unless you have 3 or more
views that are going to use the same info_dict.
* They can't be tweaked or changed much before you have to move the
code to the views file, destroying the keystroke savings.
* Second syntax for doing the same thing makes Django harder to
learn.

Am I alone on this?

I've thought about it and i think there is a better way.  I want to
see if there are others in the community who aren't in love with
generic views before I develop the alternate approach.

I'm not trying to start a flame war.
