I've built a site that uses django-registration to manage user account
creation. I allow inactive users to log in, with minimal functionality: I
use middleware to kick them to a page that reminds them to confirm their
account.
To do this, I copied the whole `AuthenticationForm.clean()` method from
`django.contrib.auth.forms` to my custom authentication_form, and removed
two lines:
{{{
elif not self.user_cache.is_active:
raise forms.ValidationError(_("This account is inactive."))
}}}
From my code's perspective, it would be nicer if the base
`AuthenticationForm` had a class-level setting to toggle whether this
check happens. Then all I would have to do is subclass the form with an
override, like
{{{
class MyAuthenticationForm(AuthenticationForm):
allow_inactive_logins = True
}}}
