Putting stuff in __init__.py... Why don't you use modules and 'from .. import'
the views into __init__.py if you want to do this? Much cleaner.

Putting a ton of stuff into __init__.py sounds like bad practice to me.
It's very easily avoided by placing a few 'from .. import' statements in your
__init__.py and doing the rest in a module where they belong.
