Sanjay, you were hitting things pretty close. I think that making sure 
slug names match up to real *static* locations is the key. I am hosting 
with Apache, and I thought about using some configurations to cheat a 
little bit, and get some of the static-files burden off of Django and let 
Apache resolve any requests that point to actual files on disk (with some 
security in mind).

What about a view that can determine if it should be pointing at a file on 
disk, and if so, do a custom Http_Response, and read the actually binary 
contents from disk by hand. Im just curious on this one; it could be an 
alternative means of file storage and recognition. I understand this may 
have some performance implications, but this is not going to break Django, 
correct? Is this bad Django etiquette?

Amirouche, a different way to describe what I am trying to achieve might be 
this: I would like to bypass the admin as much as possible when it comes to 
these "Articles". But when rendered, all of these articles do need at least 
a small HTML wrapper, and probably some kind of of global template that 
helps with navigation. If I could handle navigation without the admin, i 
would be very excited, but it does seem that I will need to use the admin 
for at least this purpose. The navigation would probably help render 
hierarchical  "menus" for use as templates within the Articles. I would 
like to keep this navigation as light as possible.

Thanks for the feedback.
