Comment:

Thanks for this ticket, however creating a new setting is always
controversial (we already have many of them), especially if there is a way
to achieve the same. You can start a discussion on DevelopersMailingList
if you don't agree.

(ref: ​https://forum.djangoproject.com/t/settings-upload-to-at-project-
level-settings/26334)

Yes and that's the right way to do it.
