Comment:

 Hi -- I am not sure if this is related, but I want to report it in case. I
 recently had a problem with the Vary:Cookie header unexpectedly being
 added to my responses. I scoured my code for unintentional accessing of
 the session. I couldn't find anything. Eventually through testing I
 pinpointed the auth context processor
 (django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth) as the source of the
 problem. My temporary fix was to comment out the 'messages' assignment in
 the dict returned by the processor. That did the trick; now the
 Vary:Cookie header is only being added when the session is indeed
 accessed. Any ideas of what's going on? Should get_messages perhaps be
 lazily accessed, just like get_user?
