20234	SingleObjectMixin does not add 'object' key to context	Matthew Somerville	Karol Sikora	"The documentation at https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/class-based-views/mixins-single-object/#django.views.generic.detail.SingleObjectMixin says that 'object' will be in the context, as well as potentially context_object_name if given. However, actually only context_object_name is set in the context by this mixin; only if object is passed to the mixin (which BaseDetailView does) will it be included.

The MultipleObjectMixin does include 'object_list' in its get_context_data (though assumes it must be passed in rather than on the object, I'll file that as another ticket), so I assume this is an issue with SingleObjectMixin, and that it should set 'object' on context whether it is passed in as a kwarg or not.

I have a patch on a branch of my github fork: https://github.com/dracos/django/compare/singleobjectfixin"	Bug	closed	Generic views	dev	Normal	fixed		tinodb marc.tamlyn@…	Accepted	1	0	0	0	0	0
