Currently, Django provides 'change', 'add', and 'delete' as base
permissions which are created on `syncdb`. I know you can set custom
permissions on a per-model basis by listing them in `Meta`, but sometimes
you want a global base permission, e.g. 'view' (this is my use case).
It looks like it may be possible to just use a setting variable in
`contrib.auth.management` to accomplish this.
Currently using this workaround: http://blog.nyaruka.com/adding-a-view-

Comment:
I don't see a reason to object to this request, so marking as accepted.
And, 'view' permission is such a fundamental permission it is a bit
strange that isn't available by default. At least being able to add it if
needed would be a good thing...
A new global setting is likely going to be objected. Maybe after app-
loading refactor this will be easier to tackle... Or maybe there could be
some other API for adding permissions. For example, Permission model
contains list of default permissions + a method to add more to that list.

Comment (by timgraham):
#25087 is a duplicate with a patch (but as a setting).
