"""
Middleware that sets the language based on the request path prefix and
strips that prefix from the path. It will also automatically redirect any
path without a prefix, unless PREFIX_DEFAULT_LOCALE is set to True.
Exceptions are paths beginning with MEDIA_URL (if
settings.LOCALE_INDEPENDENT_MEDIA_URL is set) or matching any regular
expression from LOCALE_INDEPENDENT_PATHS from the project settings.
For example, the path '/en/admin/' will set request.LANGUAGE_CODE to 'en'
and request.path to '/admin/'.
Alternatively, the language is set by the first component of the domain
name. For example, a request on 'fr.example.com' would set the language to
French.
If you use this middleware the django.core.urlresolvers.reverse function
is be patched to return paths with locale prefix (see models.py).
