If it works as I think it should (from looking at the code) I too will be
a verry happy bunny. The cookie login stuff is a leetle bit painful right
now. We've had to jump over all sorts of hurdles with our hacked up copy
of UserDb (well, it was UserDb, once. It's own mother wouldn't recognise
it now :)

I might give it a whirl on our non-public test site...
