Add is_featured boolean property to the Work model, so that Works can be designated as "featured" items in various places in the UI. This will be used to allow Sponsors, Programs, and Organizations to select Documents that should be included in their sidebar menus. Perhaps featured "site" Documents, such as site-wide Terms of Service, should probably be listed below the "User (sign-out)" menu, since the User will have to read and agree to these before being allowed to use the site. A collapsable Javascript sidebar is probably going to be needed soon... Patch by: Todd Larsen Review by: to-be-reviewed

"""
Decorator for views that tries getting the page from the cache and
populates the cache if the page isn't in the cache yet.

The cache is keyed by the URL and some data from the headers. Additionally
there is the key prefix that is used to distinguish different cache areas
in a multi-site setup. You could use the sites.get_current().domain, for
example, as that is unique across a Django project.

Additionally, all headers from the response's Vary header will be taken into
account on caching -- just like the middleware does.
