Transactions: Middleware hook at the top

[Thomas Güttler]

Hi,

​http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/transactions/

"""
MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (

'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
'django.middleware.cache.CacheMiddleware',
'django.middleware.transaction.TransactionMiddleware',

)
The order is quite important. The transaction middleware applies not only to view functions, but also for all middleware modules that come after it.
"""

I guess most people want that the sessions are part of the transaction. I think
'django.middleware.transaction.TransactionMiddleware' should be at the top of the list.

Actually, since sessions are "lazy" this order doesn't matter; as long as none of the middleware modules before the TransactionMiddleware}} actually access {{{request.session -- and none do -- it doesn't matter.
