You seem to have given this a lot of thought so let me ask a question.
How do I implement a user login system? If the user knows their password
(and don't they always?..), what's to stop them from finding and
contacting the database directly, bypassing the middle tier? I haven't
been able to find a solution to this problem. Every time I try to think
about it by brain goes into a recursive loop! :o
Ideas?
