The `redirect_authenticated_user` option was added by ticket #12233.
When combined with `@permission_required` and the user does not have the
specified permission(s), a redirect loop can occur.
We should document (and add tests) for this behaviour and recommend the
following pattern to avoid the issue:
{{{#!python
@login_required
@permission_required('permission', raise_exception=True)
def view(request):
# ...
}}}
