text of my post on the forum:
personally - I do NOT like the idea.

why do i need to use a login credential which will likely have 
financial information behind it (partner/store) to access a purportedly 
open public forum?

The forum's login is currently, and should stay, separate from the 
logins to other 4D resources.

To use as example a larger (more public) system. Online Games.
100s of million people use/play online games. Most of these 
games/companies have forums for discussion of bugs, feature requests 
etc. none of these game forums (that I have personally visited/used) 
use any part of  the game's login credentials - as login credentials 
for their forums. 

Why? to me it is simple - separation of financially backed logins from 
public forums.

IMHO - 4D should do the same, and continue to keep the forums (and 
other public resources) login credentials separate from more private 4D 
resources logins (partner login, 4D store etc).
