in reply to New site editors

A new wrinkle occurred to me... I'd really like a second "editor" password for each of the editors. This would be one that isn't stored in a cookie (at least not for longer than one editing session) so that editors have to type their second password in each time they go to edit another's node.

This serves to remind editors of the seriousness of this task. It also prevents someone from borrowing my desktop or stealing my cookie with home-node JavaScript and then kicking off a LWP::UserAgent that munges every node it can find.

In the mean time, I suggest all editors disable JavaScript (at least for *perlmonks.{org|net|com}) and, if they hadn't disabled it before, change their password. That just seems like way too tempting of a target...
