Hey folks, as the title says, my team would like to return the payload after a user authenticates with extra information (mostly related to the user). As a solution to this, we would like to redefine ObtainAuthToken <https://github.com/encode/django-rest-framework/blob/master/rest_framework/authtoken/views.py#L15> as suggested in the docs <http://www.django-rest-framework.org/api-guide/authentication/#generating-tokens> . The problem is that the user object after calling the super method is not present, so a new query for the user must be done. Another alternative would be to copy the whole post function and change it, but I think it would be better to call super, and make minor modifications. So my question is, is there a better way to do this? Would be possible to update DRF to add the user to the self in the view (initialized as None)?
