#2521: Weather shouldn't use the confirm_auth string in the URL of the /pending/
page

Currently Weather forwards a newly subscribed user to the /pending/ page,
passing on the confirm_auth string in the URL. This is a bad idea from a
security point of view. Nicolas Pouillard reported this issue (thanks!).
It is currently worked around in the live version of Weather.
A real fix might need a redesign of some parts or workflows in Weather.
