For that matter, if the username/password cookie(s) is(are) not present, why
not just assume 'guest'/'guest' and proceed with anonymous login? The few
people that actually have a GNATS account can always click "login again",
and even that will only need to be done once (assuming they save the cookie).
"Few" compared to the number of anonymous users, that is.
