Thanks for the explanation.

Adding a method to the view is easy enough:

     def absolute_url(self):
         return "%s/%s" % (self.utool(),
                           self.context.auto_login_page)

Although this exposes some of the drawbacks of the current implementation.

Makes sense. I can see logging in and out as special cases of actions -  
you shouldn't really be able to do without them. But they shouldn't be  
hard-coded into CookieCrumbler.

  Any idea why CookieCrumbler is a Folder?
