TASK DESCRIPTION
  The basic machinery works (as long as you work around check_user_exists), but 
the login system breaks some of our expectations when it comes to 'login name = 
username'.
  
  I think the cleanest implementation is to store the real username 
('valhallasw'), and to store BotPassword information in the password file, 
which would then have an entry ('valhallasw@something', 'thebotpassword').
  
  I'm not sure what the best course of action is in the case of entering the 
password manually. For that, one might want to save the postfix somewhere, but 
I'd rather not store 'valhallasw@something' as username, as that breaks 
assumptions we make in other parts of the code (although I'm not sure how many).
