Granted that deleting cookies pretty much zaps session management,
but...

The trick to making this work right, I think, is making it successfully
self-service.  A user has to have enough retries to get it thru their
thick skull that they forgot their password (I use 4 strikes).  

The lockout has to expire on its own (use session vars and a session
timeout handles this nicely) and the "I forgot my password.  Help me"
link has to be plainly displayed and easy to use -- and also
self-service.  

There's a whole 'nother topic right there.
