Hi, I agree. I'm just not so sure about the is_valid_user method, people will have to start checking for this method instead of checking for an existent user.
I can't imagine someone needing to authenticate a non-active user, and even if someone do, he'll be able to do it manually, or passing "is_active=False" to the authenticate method. In other hand, maybe (note: maybe) this can break projects that don't check for this flag. So, I can see two paths: - change this behaviour; - make a note in the docs that inactive users can authenticate. Best regards.
