View references

Why is it that in order to use global views for stuff like "login" one has to repeat:

<view ref="loginRequired" />

In absolutely every controller that uses that reference, why can't the global view be referenced automatically when there is no local view with that id?

For me it seems it's better to make a static variable in my authenticated base controller holding the name of the url a failed login should be redirected too than repeating an endless number of identical nodes.

Dazed and confused!
