Comment (by Sarah Boyce):
Hello, thank you for the PR!
> When I submit a patch for this, is there a preferred way I can request
that it be backported to 4.2 LTS, so at least someone considers it?
Requesting on the ticket is fine. I have considered it, however I agree
with Tim Graham that this doesn't qualify for a backport. 4.2 is only
receiving security and data loss fixes.
`slice` is also documented to be for lists
(https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/ref/templates/builtins/#slice), so
I agree this is unexpected usage. I think you will need to make a custom
template filter in your code for 4.2.
