I don't feel this ought to be a board decision at the moment. I
suggest a non-binding poll of the community take place first. This can
be used to inform the developers and also to help to adjust the
current proposals for single-login. I'd rather the developer committee
came to a consensus about this issue, based on the results of the
poll, since it is them who have to create the single login feature.
There is little point in the board saying make it all magically work
for an option that is disliked by the community or not likely to be
coded.
