Lars Trieloff commented on SLING-175:
-------------------------------------
I would propose to implement a client-side wrapping of the current HTTP basic
authentication that would allow styled HTML forms for the user interface, but
still use sessionless HTTP-Authorization headers for actual data transmission.
The implementation we have done for Mindquarry handles login, wrong
credentials, password change and logout transparently without ever showing the
browser's login window.

> request that we can also have form-based authentication.
