title: How to implement a "back" link on Django Templates?
body: <p>I'm tooling around with <a href="http://www.djangoproject.com/" rel="noreferrer">Django</a> and I'm wondering if there is a simple way to create a "back" link to the previous page using the template system.</p>
  
  <p>I figure that in the worst case I can get this information from the request object in the view function, and pass it along to the template rendering method, but I'm hoping I can avoid all this boilerplate code somehow.</p>
  
  <p>I've checked the Django template docs and I haven't seen anything that mentions this explicitly.</p>
