I like it, though I have a couple of questions about the accounts
themselves.
- Any chance we could have them connected (or use the same
credentials as) the patchworks ones?
- If not, what options can we set on accounts? Right now I just see
"log out" and "change password". Both pretty important, but I'd
also like to add alternate email addresses, for example, since I
use two quite regularly and update meta-networking from both.
