I don't have time at the moment to really go through the auth/auth
stuff that people have been proposing. However, I did want to comment
on this...

Keep in mind that if TurboGears is in control of both the
authentication/authorization *and* the choice of HTML vs. JSON, that
means that making an AJAX request that gets JSON back can
automatically trigger a JSON response that represents an
authentication failure. This is the nice thing about having the
framework control different views of the data in this way.
