Well, to be perfectly honest I almost never use the 'startproject' or 'startapp' commands. When I'm working on a new app I just create the directory and an __init__.py, and then start filling in specific files inside it as I need them. For stuff at work apps all go into one of a couple particular namespaces, so packaging concerns don't come up there; for my personal stuff the package name is almost never the same as the app anyway (e.g., django-registration provides an app in a module named 'registration'). Also, I'd really really like the concept of the project to die soon.
