Shouldn't be hard but you have to change the expire time on the cookie
that BW provides.  Right now I think it is fairly short.

When logging in, the login would first look for a valid non-expired
cookie and then compare the password in it to what is stored for that
user in the system.

If it matches, then you log the user in without asking...

If it doesn't, you destroy the cookie and go through the normal
process and set a new cookie.

When you log out, the cookie should be destroyed so it can't be used
again.  This is needed if you are logging in via a public terminal.

Of course unless you are using SSL, it is pretty wide open to be
sniffed but that is a different issue.
