Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):
in the current implementation, it'll try to authenticate against the db on
every attempt, which i think is wasteful if someone supplies informaiton
that you know could never authorize an account.
there are a ton of better ways to handle authentication validation: if
someone enters in no username, it should mark that as empty and not go
against the db. if someone enters in a 4char password and you have a
minimum of 6 chars, it should say "password is too short". if your
username is must be 8+chars or an email address , it should say as much.
considing how many dozens of logins and passwords people have today, hints
like that help them remember which they should be using.
