+1 for Vincent's point. * The Login/avatar transition from Guest to logged in user makes perfect sense, even if it looks a bit awkward for guests. ** This also goes in line with a previous discussion we had on Notifications which concluded that Search should be the left-most icon, due to its expansion when clicked and the fact that it would shift anything to its left and we don't want users to be chasing our buttons. * The textual "Log-in" is justified, as Caty proposes, to remove any ambiguity caused by an icon and is a very used practice on the web
I find more points in favor of this than against it and tend to believe that it will behave well in practice. Here's a screenshot of how it would look like now (made by Caty): https://jira.xwiki.org/secure/attachment/34756/Proposition5.1.png Side Note: Thinking ahead, this might also be extended at some point to have a drop-down login form when clicking the Log-In button from the top menu, instead of redirecting to the login action, making the process much smoother than it is right now.
