In general, you can look at the templates in contrib.Admin and maybe use some
blocks, or add a block to your own copy of the template.
{% block after_field_sets %}{% endblock %}
{% block after_related_objects %}{% endblock %}
At some point, you just have to deal with building your own admin form, but you
can still have you template extend "admin/base_site" and leverage the admin CSS,
etc.
It is easy to intercept the admin url, as in:
urlpatterns += patterns('',
(r'^admin/manager/sale/add/$', 'sale.add'),
(r'^admin/', include('django.contrib.admin.urls')),
)
If you go this route, you may still be able to take advantage of generic views,
e.g. django.views.generic.create_update.create_object.
