Allowing `method_decorator` to be applied at the class level would avoid
situations where a superclass method is re-declared, just to apply a
decorator.
The following would be equivalent:
{{{
#!python
class ProtectedView(generic.TemplateView):
template_name = 'secret.html'
@method_decorator(login_required)
def dispatch(self, *args, **kwargs):
return super(ProtectedView, self).dispatch(*args, **kwargs)
}}}
{{{
#!python
@method_decorator(login_required, name='dispatch')
class ProtectedView(generic.TemplateView):
template_name = 'secret.html'
}}}
This idea comes from a comment by timgraham on #25138.
