Subject: Multiple ideas for multiple logbooks 
Hi!

After a long pause, here we are again with a bunch of new ideas (and problems ...;) )

1. Multiple login
Since we are using the elog system now for most aspects of our work, we are more and more often confronted with the need to work with different logbooks open in parallel (e.g. the shift logbook as well as the personal analysis logbook, via tabbed browsing). These logbooks do not always have the same users allowed to access them, so when having logged on to one logbook and then opening another one in a different browser tab, I have to log on as a different user, thereby losing the login on the first logbook. Is there any way to change the cookie structure so as to allow one (physical) user to be logged on as more than one elog user at a time?

2. <Ctrl-T>
While using this logbook (and tabbed browsing), I noticed that the keyboard shortcut <Ctrl-T> now leads to the creation of a table (great thing, btw). However, many of our users are accustomed to this shortcut opening a new browser Tab. Is there any way to disable these elog shortcuts or otherwise disentangle these functions (by using <Alt> instead of <Ctrl> or something similar, since the functionality itself is very good)?

Thanks for any idea on these issues, and thanks for the great software!
