Option 1 doesn't hold much appeal, for all the reasons you mention.

Option 2 is a possibility, I suppose. Checking to see if password_reset_confirm returns an HttpRedirect is a possibility I hadn't considered.

Option 3 is intriguing. But this part has me scratching my head:

 

Then, write a method that has the same prototype as the constructor for the form that the password_reset_confirm() method is expecting, but returns an instance of *your* form, bound with the current request.

 
Okay, how could this method create a form bound with the current request? How is the method getting its mitts on the current request? The method is being passed to password_reset_confirm via the URL dispatcher – that is, I would need to have code like the following in my urls.py:

  url(r'^password/set/(?P<uidb36>\w+)/(?P<token>[-\w]+)',
    'password_reset_confirm', {
      'set_password_form': abracadabra_method,
    }),

Where does abracadabra_method get the current request?

Sorry - I probably wasn't clear - option 3 is an extension of option 2. You exploit the fact that you can call a view, and provide a generated function as the argument:

def bind_form(request):

    def create_form_instance(data):

        return MyForm(request, data)

   return create_form_instance

def my_password_reset_confirm(request):

    return password_reset_confirm(request, set_password_form=bind_form(request))
