If you enter the login/password at the post screen, no, they will not be saved in cookies, password caches, or anywhere else on your end.
It does use temporary cookies to note what items you have read, but those dissappear once you close the browser. Not that it matters -- they don't say anything the history window couldn't tell you.

Fair enough. Width is now 60 (which should be fine even on 640x480 unless you use a REALLY big font).

I did see a few interesting features. I have yet to find a system that really does what I want (just running 15 sites off one FastCGI process narrows the playing field), so I intend to merge them a bit.
