I've updated the patch, created and evolved by SmileyChris
for this, to apply cleanly to trunk, tests still pass.
Malcolm expressed back then that he would wish
another committer took care of this and has expressed
his concerns regarding this going in to Django core and
made some other technical remarks regading the
implementation.
What directions do [the rest of the] core devs think should this
take?. I could try to work on getting things in shape
so it can approach a ready state for 1.1 a intially
planned.
An user has posted in a comment a link to a [1]snippet
he made reusing code from the patch, moving things
to a middleware. Would be an acceptable approach
do do so and get this functionality in a contrib app
providing such middleware and a context processor?.

I'd like to see this moved into an external app so that we can
de-couple it from the 1.1 release. If it proves to be popular and
stable, we could then consider it for 1.2.

- The current user based messages are not usefull for me.
- I use a own version of session based messages which is based
on code of this ticket. But I added an optional loglevel argument.
- Although I use sesion based messages, I want to use a different
aproach in the future, since they produce unneeded UPDATE statements.
HTTP POST, create_message('Changes were saved'), Redirect after Post,
GET, pop_messages() --> SQL UPDATE.
The second request (GET) could be readonly.
Maybe something like this snippet would be good:

Anyways, I just wanted to say that I love django-flash. "The flash" is
just the Rails term for user messages and has nothing to do with
Flash. Doing a search for "django flash" is much more helpful than
"django user messages."

I've been using it on Baconfile and it's hot.
