because i think there are good things to be gained by authenticating the
user when visiting m.e.o.

sounds contradictory to me.  if we're asking for them to input username and
password then it sounds like we're asking for credentials.  the fact that we
currently only have a few pages that are m.e.o.-root specific isn't the
point.  what if we decided to offer a bunch more services via the m.e.o.
space that required authentication?

this is all a moot point though until we can figure out if we can even kill
cookies prior to the requested template handling the request.  my feeling is
that we won't be able to.

just my 2c,
