 I'm working on per site login system currently.

 It is required to get the site of the request in prior to calling
 ``authenticate()`` so the calls to my auth backend should be either in
 form of:
 {{{
   authenticate(site_id, username, password)
 }}}
 or more general:
 {{{
   authenticate(request, username, password)
 }}}

 If I try to create own `django.contrib.auth.forms.AuthenticationForm` e.g.
 by subclassing, then the login view never sets the `request` attribute of
 auth form.

 So currently I have to recreate whole login view and authentication form
 in order to make per site login. With this simple patch I could just
 subclass AuthenticationForm and override the `clean()` functions call to
 authentication.

 to django].
