Is there a possibility to add a message parameter to **get_object_or_404**
and **get_list_or_404**? This function is lovely and reduces boilerplate a
lot. In the view that I'm currently using it, I have business logic that
depends on finding other models first, and having a message should be
excellent since the lack of a message parameter sends me back to using
**try-catch** or **if-None** statements.
I know there might be another design or security feature as well but the
gain in my code would be significant.

Comment:
Thanks for this ticket, however we don't want to complicate this
shortcuts. You can always add a small wrapper in your app, e.g.
{{{#!python
def my_get_object_or_404(klass, message, *args, **kwargs):
try:
return get_object_or_404(klass, *args, **kwargs)
except Http404:
if message:
raise Http404(message)
else:
raise
}}}
