I didn't say self.instance.

Like the one from my example, > django.contrib.auth.decorators.login_required can be transformed into Mixin. > Will it be? Unlikely, because login is a natural fit for a decorator. You have a view. The operation of that view can be a black box with regards to login. The decorator can check login status, and redirect if you're not logged in; or call the black box if you are. Sure, you *could* implement this as a mixin, but I'm not sure I see the gain in offering two ways to do the same thing.
