 At Jacob's urging, I improved the documentation patch to include a

Comment:

 The language "don't have a default database" was a bit ambiguous. On the
 assumption that it was referring to the business problem and not the
 settings file (since Django won't work without a default entry), I said
 that plainly and also stated that Django ``requires`` a ``default``
 database entry.

Comment (by Casey Bessette ):

 If I specify a default database as so, the application and tests run:
 {{{
 DATABASES = {
 'default': {  # Leave this blank, we do not want a 'default' database
 defined.
 'ENGINE': '',
 'NAME': '',
 'USER': '',
 'PASSWORD': '',
 'HOST': '',
 'PORT': '',
 },
 ...
 }
 }}}
 But it would be better if nothing needed to be defined at all.

New description:

 For version 1.4 and dev documentation on multiple databases the text seems
 to imply that you can choose not to define a "default" db
