Authenticated user loss an attribute that is added under user_logged_in signal.

I am using out of the box django 1.5 authentication solution. I also user_logged_in signal from django.contrib.auth.signals to add a piece of information to the logged in user to hope i can retrieve it later as follow:

from django.contrib.auth.signals import user_logged_in

from django.dispatch import receiver

@receiver(user_logged_in)    

def add_extra_info_to_logged_in_user(sender,user,request,**kwargs):

    user.extra_info = 'extra info'

    print user.extra_info # I confirmed that the assignment is executed

However, i can not retrieve user.extra_info from request object as follow:

from braces.views import LoginRequiredMixin

from django.views.generic import ListView

class MyListView(LoginRequiredMixin,ListView):

    def get_queryset(self):

        self.request.user.extra_info #  'User' object has no attribute 'extra_info'

        ...

Thank you for any suggestion.
