Curtis started a PR [0] that replaces the functionality of AuthenticationMiddleware.process_request():
request.user = SimpleLazyObject(lambda: get_user(request)) with this line in AuthConfig.ready(): HttpRequest.user = cached_property(get_user, 'user') Before finishing the patch, I'd like to get a few more eyeballs on it to make sure there aren't any downsides to this approach.
