Yeppers Mat, you been missin' out! Look for some Django vid's on Youtube, but there's not much out there.

 

Keep in mind that due to an accident (fire, I believe) he only had the use of his index and middle finger on his fretting hand. If you find a vid, it's fascinating to watch him play.

Yes, his wife made celluloid flowers for a living and those are highly flammable. The doctors wanted to amputate his leg but he would have none of it.

 

Also, the 3rd and 4th could be used for some chord work, but indeed all solos were played with 2 fingers. :)
