Comment (by timgraham):
About "be more explicit that the user is already authentication and that
re-authentication will happen" -- it seems like could be done in the
project's login template (Django doesn't ship one, except for the admin,
but it doesn't seem relevant there since it doesn't allow viewing the
login page for logged in users).
About "I'd really assume that the expected behaviour is to just accept
that external authentication and skip the logon page" -- as noted before,
adding this behavior would be backwards incompatible and seems better left
to a custom login view.
