    6667be checked in if finished in time.

     69The following features have committers who'll take responsibility for getting
     70the feature in; as such they can be considered a sort of "first-priority" of
     71among the "maybe" features:
    6772
    6873    * [Admin-05] ModelAdmin should allow for overriding of ``ForeignKey``/``ManyToMany`` options.
    … …  
    8388    * [View-03] Support for ``wsgi.file_wrapper`` for large files.
    8489   
     90The following features were reviewed highly and are generally accepted as
     91"wanted", but currently are lacking a "champion" to see the feature done. This
     92means these features are likely to be included in 1.1 if finished, but are
     93a sort of "second-tier":
     94
     95    * [Contrib-01] Session-based form wizard.
     96    * [Form-02] ``django.forms.SafeForm`` - forms with built-in CSRF protection.
     97    * [ORM-09] ``Manager.update_or_create()`` and ``Model.update()``.
     98    * [ORM-10] ``QuerySet.select_for_update()`` method.
     99    * [ORM-11] ``QuerySet.cache()`` method.
     100    * [ORM-12] Allow the use of ``property()`` in fields.
     101    * [ORM-13] Support for ``DISTINCT ON`` queries with ``QuerySet.distinct()``.
     102    * [ORM-16] Native autocommit option for Postgresql backend.
     103    * [ORM-18] Add signals to many-to-many objects.
     104    * [Template-01] Extend inclusion tag syntax to allow custom templates.
     105    * [Template-04] Clean-up of ``django.template`` internals.
     106    * [Template-05] Namespace support for template libraries.
     107
     108Special cases
     109-------------
     110
     111As is to be expected, a few features don't fit so easily into any of the hard
     112categories:
     113
     114    * [ORM-05] Sharing of ``selected_related()`` data in memory, and/or an
     115      ORM identity map.
     116     
     117      The scope of this feature is a bit nebulous, but it's under discussion
     118      on `django-developers`_. If consensus is reached and the feature can
     119      be implemented in time, it'll get into 1.1.
     120     
     121    * [Form-01] Selectable HTML output for forms/fields.
     122   
     123      This feature is similarly not fully-scoped, though this one has a
     124      reference implementation so it's further along. However,, there's a fair
     125      bit of controversy about the particular proposed implementation. Again,
     126      consensus is the issue here; discussion is ongoing.
     127     
     128    * [View-02] Add ``RequestContext`` by default in ``render_to_response``.
     129   
     130      This proposal is strongly controversial, with multiple +1 and -1 votes.
     131      As such, consensus seems unlikely; a middle-ground approach will need be
     132      found, which likely pushes this out of scope for 1.1.
