Example of wrapping a generic method could be better

[garth]

The example of wrapping a generic method in a login decorator is shown below

from django.views.generic.date_based import object_detail

@login_required
def limited_object_detail(*args, **kwargs):
    return object_detail(*args, **kwargs)

It is probably much easer and cleaner to do

from django.views.generic.date_based import object_detail

limited_object_detail = login_required(object_detail)

I'd prefer to leave this at it is. Your change only works in this particular case, whereas the more general form in the documents gives people the push to remind that it's "just a function" and they can put whatever they like in there.
