authentication on steroids :), bear in mind that my app was coded
where there were still many changes being done to T2 (pre 1.55) and I

currently developing an app that I can tell you it'll be very useful
for the community and I am precicely using web2py tools (with the
added benefit of the decorators), take the original post in my blog as
a proof-of-concept. Thanks for your hard work Massimo.
