[Seaside] Seaside authentication/login/user account package

[Alexander Lazarević]

Tony,

nice work indeed. Two things

Class variable names should be capitalized, so in TLApplicationPropertyItem
with displayName and userModifiable.

I saw that you just copied over my reCaptcha implementation from
http://www.squeaksource.com/BowWave into your package only changing the
Classnameprefix from BW to TL and leaving out one configuration class.
I just wonder why it wasn't possible for you to just use the component as it
is and you were forced to do a plain copy&paste?

> I have integrated this successfully with one of my own existing web

> This is *not* a lot of testing and this is definitely version 1.0 or
> less, so I expect bugs a-plenty will be found. I am still refactoring
> the code, but that should not change the functionality or the public
> API.

> All feedback is welcome.
