Hopefully before the alpha.  As otherwise I have to hack on that to make
it secure...

Yeah, I have to say that for all the energy that was put into SWAT2, it
seems to have stalled.  I intend to at least make the LDB browser work
for alpha1, but for anything else I'm involved in (like the provision
and migration code), I'll be using the old-style form-submit code.  I
think we will have both for a long time to come.
