Doesn't seem hard. Why don't we set an extra cookie when you log in,
let's say "globalLoginRequired". Then the JS on every page should
check for that cookie, and if it's present, send some background
requests to log you in on the other sites. To allow for browsers that
don't support CORS, we can still do image loads as now. Stick them
unobtrusively in the footer, or make them display: none. Once the
images have all loaded, clear the globalLoginRequired cookie.
I went to file a bug about killing the login screen with CentralAuth, but it
looks like a bug was already filed a few years ago:
("Successful login
message should not be displayed when using CentralAuth").
