Django Template "include_raw" tag

At WWU Housing, we started using the [Tempest jQuery plugin](http://plugins.jquery.com/project/tempest) for javascript templating, which has the same {{ var }} syntax as Django's templating. We wanted to be able to use the same templates in our server-side python and our client-side js, so we had to have a way of including the unrendered template for the js. At the same time, for convenience, it had to be modular so we could push the same code from our dev- to our live-server and not worry about absolute paths (which is why the {% ssi %} tag did not work). So the {% include_raw %} tag was born.

RequiredNullBooleanField

In our situation, we want the user to choose either yes or no. The only requirement is that they fill out the form. It is _not_ required that they answer True/Yes. The BooleanField treats None and False as False; The NullBooleanField distinguishes between None and False, but it doesn't raise any validation errors. Subclassing the NullBooleanField was better than overriding the clean method on all of our NullBooleanField instances.
