I am sorry that I don't have an implementation of a Django-site that would leverage this, but it is a truly awesome idea. Where I work, we have a site that is managed by Wordpress. We serve it from Akamai so we have to flatten it out. Our methodology boils down to a sitemap and a wget script that pulls every view. We then lftp the flattened version out to Akamai. This process is time-intensive, but it yields terrific results that you bulleted out in the article.
Oh, how I would love this approach with Django! Since what we have isn't broken, no reason to fix it as our focus is elsewhere at the moment.
The biggest gotcha can be the lack of server-side logic. Imagine orchestrating a time-sensitive, multi-phase event visible to over two million users by uploading a JSON file manually at appropriate times to Akamai and relying on JavaScript to handle redirects/DOM changes for evolving views. It takes being creative with the baked approach, but it can very well be done!!!
