Comment:
I have another use case for this: rendering the user's name in the
`registration/password_reset_confirm.html` template.
Currently the `password_reset_confirm` view does not provide "user" as a
template context variable, nor even "uidb36" and "token". Since the form
also doesn't have the user object stored on a GET request, this means that
there's no way for the template to say "{% if validlink %} Hello, {{
user.username }} -- reset your password here {% endif %}" -- short of
forking the view, or some pretty hacky middleware that re-parses the
request URL and re-fetches the user from the given uid+token.
I see that the "needs_tests" flag is set on this ticket .. what sort of
test would be required for this patch to be merged?
