Since version 5.1, Django includes a built-in querystring templatetag. However, when loading the django_tables2 templatetag library, the built-in tag is shadowed. Since these templatetags are incompatible, it leads to some confusion, which will only grow as usage of the built-in querystring becomes more widespread.

So far, I have considered the following alternatives:

1. Moving the querystring templatetag to a separate library (for example django_tables2_utils).
2. Renaming the querystring templatetag to something else, like query_replace or querystring_replace
3. A combination of (1) and (2)

Unfortunately, none of these alternatives is backward-compatible if the user has copied/modified the default table templates for their project.
