 The cookie test in the django.contrib.auth.views.login() view doesn't work
 as expected.

 The url is set up as follows.

 {{{

     (r'^login/$', 'django.contrib.auth.views.login')
 }}}


 After disabling cookies in the browser...

 1. the login view is called via a GET request and displays the login
 template/form (the test cookie is set).

 2. The form is posted back to the login view (the view is supposed to
 check
 for the test cookie and throw an error if the cookie is not found. This
 check doesn't happen).


 The documentation of the init method of AuthenticationForm says it
 will validate that cookies are enabled only if a request is passed in
 when instantiating the form. But on POST the login view doesn't pass
 the request to AuthenticationForm.
