It would be good if the staff site had a proper login page. At the
moment you are expected to do something like:
http://nick:pass-9LVeefAf2bElroQnaJEqWdi2O/[email protected]
If you fail it never asks you again, and this makes it hard for your
browser to remember it as well.
It would be nice if there was a proper login page, and if it went
there any time you failed to log in.
I was also thinking of making this work over SSL now that we have
more IPs. This way, it could use your nick password instead of a
new staff password, which would be much nicer. Perhaps we could
look into a login page after I have made SSL work.
