Thanks.

This is a whitelist approach to the problem. That is, I must specify every
view that requires login. As nearly 99% of my views will require
authentication, I'd prefer to take a blacklist approach. That is, all views
are assumed to require login, unless I annotate the views to not require a
login. This avoids accidentally leaving views publicly accessible when
someone forgets the login_required decorator (or CBV equivalent).

I can achieve this with middleware (and maybe a decorator), but it occurred
to me that others probably already do this as well. I am curious if there
is a canonical approach or implementation that others use for this very
purpose.

Thanks,
Jon
