Description

The functions in django.contrib.auth.views do not accept a named argument template_loader, like the generic views do. Am attaching a patch that fixes this. There's no documentation yet; I'm quite willing to write that if there's any interest in this.

Out of curiosity, what problem does this solve? Django already tries all of the loaders in TEMPLATE_LOADERS, in order, so in theory you can use that.

Without a solid use case, we really can't do much with this ticket.

The reason this would be necessary is to make use of template systems other than django's.
