I think this is great idea. I also think that most people use the same
username/password combination for these kind of sites anyway. Insecure
as in that if you know my zope.org password, you'll know my zopezen.org
password too (and probably my Slashdot one too), sure, but I only keep
three sets of username/passwords and use them depending on the kind of
site.
