Some people like cleaner URI's. Also, after the submit, someone could
bookmark the page. Therefore, you want to make sure that when the go back,
that the LoginUser action deals with the possibility of not having any
information passed to it (because the rest would have been in <input
type="text"> fields and the method was POST).
For Scarab, I'm going to have to copy Bugzilla's system of doing things and
use entirely GET method with nothing hidden at all in the URI's because
there are people who like the ability to edit the URI on the "command
line"...
