Comment:
Yes it's intentional, this isn't worth the extra complexity.
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/topics/auth/customizing/#custom-
users-and-the-built-in-auth-forms The built-in auth forms] make several
assumptions about the user model. You need to create a subclass of
`AuthenticationForm` if you want to use a different widget.
