Comment (by buchanae):
I've done some work on this here:
https://github.com/abuchanan/django/tree/ticket_12233
Still needs work.
I changed the argument name to "redirect_authenticated_user" and the value
type to Boolean (whether authenticated users should be redirected) which
defaults to False because I figured that would be more backwards-
compatible.
The redirect URL would use the same mechanism as normal user login.
I'm not sure yet how to handle a case where the redirect url is the login
page (creating an infinite redirect loop). I guess I could chalk that up
to user error and just let it happen.
I've also considered that this may be cleaner as a view decorator.
Thoughts on that?
Something to the effect of:
{{{
@redirect_authenticated_user(redirect_field_name=REDIRECT_FIELD_NAME,
redirect_url=settings.LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL)
def your_view(request): pass
}}}
