Comment (by alex_dev):

 Please consider another approach:

 {{{
 from django.core.exceptions import PermissionDenied

 def permission_required(perm, login_url=None):
     """
     Decorator for views that checks whether a user has a particular
 permission
     enabled, redirecting to the log-in page if necessary.
     """
     def check_perms(user):
         if user.is_anonymous():
             return False
         if user.has_perm(perm):
             return True
         raise PermissionDenied

     return user_passes_test(check_perms, login_url=login_url)
 }}}
 This one doesn't change semantics of 'user_passes_test'. It depends on
 #9847 for handling PermissionDenied exception.
