Hi Gabriel,

Yup.  I had mentioned those steps on the list previously when I was 
asking if anyone was interested in an single sign on patch a few months 
back.  I would have implemented a new config option to enable sso, and 
to specify a global htcookiesalt path.  It would have set DOKU_REL to / 
when sso was on, and set DOKU_COOKIE to something else, but there was no 
interest.  I dropped the idea since I update DW frequently, and I don't 
want to make changes every time that I update.  At least if it was in 
the core, I wouldn't have to change anything.
Jason.
