You quoted me out of context, yes.

I think I've already answered this in the other thread.
Your point in this new thread was "[PmWiki security access system]
lacks a simple, official way to let people register, have their
email verified, set up a password, have their password reset/emailed
in case it gets forgotten."
I agree with you. My responses have been:
(1) any "official way" misses the needs of a significant
percentage of PmWiki sites
(2) it's not clear where this additional information should be
stored -- in the SiteAdmin.AuthUser page directly or in
individual user profile pages
Until I'm able to see a clearly good decision on this latter point --
that is, until it's clear *where* in PmWiki we will store sensitive
information such as email addresses -- the rest of the discussion
is merely speculation. At least, it's speculation if I'm expected
to support its inclusion in the core.
