How to prevent sails.js from passing the req object on all views?

I noticed that sails.js passes the req object to ALL views, and doing that, to my understanding, is not the default behavior on Express (which sails is based on).

I can't find anything on the documentation. Is there any way to prevent sails from doing this? I mean, I don't see the need to pass such as huge object every time.

Thanks

JavaScript passes objects by reference. The actual contents of req is stored once internally and all the req variables you find are just referring to the same object in memory. I'm not familiar with sails.js, but I'm guessing it's getting passed for convenience.
