Actually this is not a good idea. Most people I know have several logbooks, but a common password file. Access control is then fine-tuned via 'Login user = ...'. Now if I implement a per-logbook cookie, these people would have to log in once for each logbook. If the go to a new browser which does not contain their old cookies, or if the cookies expire, they would have to log in again once for each logbook. On installations with 20 and more logbooks this can be cumbersome. So all these people would complain. |
