Description
Section described: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/auth/#the-login-required-decorator.
The use of the 'next' and 'redirect_to_field' is not clear. I think this section deserves a little more description of how to use the decorator correctly.
Current:
"If the user isn't logged in, redirect to settings.LOGIN_URL (/accounts/login/ by default), passing the current absolute URL in the query string as next or the value of redirect_field_name. For example: /accounts/login/?next=/polls/3/."
Addition:
"You can pass this value to the login form to complete the request after successful login. See views.login() below for an example.
