15078	django.contrib.auth.views.login(...) doesn't accept a form argument	hgezim	nobody	"This is my first ticket, so please don't eat me!

I wanted my users to be able to login using their email and password, not the username.

I created a ModelForm that exposed the User's (model) email and password. However, I found out that django.contrib.auth.views.login(...) doesn't accept a form argument.

I think for use cases like this it would be useful to accept a form argument and allow the form to determine what it means to be valid or not."		closed	contrib.auth	1.2		invalid	login, view		Unreviewed	0	0	0	0	0	0
