You may set the "__ac_name" too late to have any effect on
authentication. Usually, authentication has already taken place
when you get control; exception: AccessRules (or other
"__before_publishing_traverse__" and "__bobo_traverse__" hooks).
I don't think so.
The fact is that Zope doesn't even know that this is a log in page.
It's a page to login BEFORE requesting protected content. So the first 
contact with Zope authentification is on
   userObject = self.acl_users.validate(REQUEST)
Zope does the authentication even for non-protected content.
When there is not authentication info, the result will
be the "Anonymous user".
