Summary: login page should have username/password
Initial Comment:
The login page for mailman administration should have username/
password in stead of just password.
The main reason for me asking this is that it will allow Safari (and
probably other browsers as well) to remember all the passwords to
all the mailman lists I manage.
In addition, if the username was actually used (from the previous
paragraph you'll understand I'm happy enough if it is ignored:-)
you could have per-admin passwords. And that would of course
open the door for keeping logs of which admin did what, which'll
lead to finding scapegoats when things go wrong, etc etc etc.

This problem also occurs with Firefox.
The name of the form field for administrator login (on the
"<listname> Administrator Authentication" page) is "adminpw"
rather than "password". I'm not sure that Firefox will pick
up the password without an accompanying username either.
