Yay, shall do!

I look forward to the learning experience of how it looks done "properly" 
compared to my patch. I got more confused the closer I looked at the security 
stuff. I suspect that a proper solution will either be much simpler than 
mine, or involve a lot more changes - IOW, I just didn't see how to do it, or 
it really isn't that simple.
