My apologies that I've haven't responded sooner, but I'm literally on
the other side of the world this week and I haven't had much time to
spend getting caught up on email etc. There's definitely a misperception
of our capabilities somewhere...

1) If you have enabled a custom control panel hostname, we will
automatically extend your control panel UI customizations to your
customer login screen. You can turn on your custom hostname in your
reseller control panel and enable it with a CNAME. This is well-documented.

2) We've made some adjustments to the way we allow resellers using SSL
to handle errors more gracefully (a while back now). We haven't
documented this publicly for security reasons, but I'd be happy to put
instructions into the hands of those that really need the functionality.

3) Our method of redirects. I'm poking at what we can reasonably do
without causing mass confusion in other areas. It should be too much
trouble to make sure that http://controlpanel.resellername.tld is
redirected to http://www.blogware.com/admin instead of
http://www.blogware.com (even though it is admittedly less intuitive
from a technical perspective, it probably makes more sense from a
usability perspective - translation: we didn't think of it when we built
it, but we can probably do it without too much trouble). No timelines
until I get home from the ICANN meeting...

Hopefully this is helpful. Let me know if I need to clarify further.
