granted. ;)

Yes. But actually (I took a look in the LoginManager code - and it seems as if he
is not directly guilty that the traceback shows up, when the login screen is
raisen) having a commented traceback in all pages is better then having an uninfluencable
§ dangling around, which actually makes applications unsellable. (I am currently
involved in a kind of competition between web application tools at my university, and i
want to let zope blink and shine in its best manner.)
