Public bug reported:

[Availability]
Currently in NEW queue.

[Rationale]
This is a new dependency for the OpenStack horizon project.

[Security]
No security history.

[Quality Assurance]
Package works out of the box with no prompting. There are no major bugs in Ubuntu and there are no major bugs in Debian. Unit tests are run during build.

[Dependencies]
All are in main.

[Standards Compliance]
FHS and Debian Policy compliant.

[Maintenance]
Simple python package that the OpenStack Team will take care of.

[Background]
Basic/extra mitigation against the `BREACH attack <http://breachattack.com/>`_ 
for Django projects. 

When combined with rate limiting in your web-server, or by using something
like `django-ratelimit <http://django-ratelimit.readthedocs.org/>`_, the 
techniques here should provide at least some protection against the BREACH 
attack.
