While I can see the rationale behind the change (making pages cacheable
for logged in users and anons alike), I have to agree that the result is
rather confusing, particularly in the current Wikimedia environment with
its hundreds of wikis and separate logins which expire separately.
I thought that we were moving towards having sections of a page
dynamically generated and other sections statically cached, using ESI?
If so, is there any reason not to display the login information?
All best,
Erik
