[TYPO3-dev] BE_USER object weirdness with Firefox 3

It is probably a cookie-related problem, but I haven't dug into that 
yet. Whatever it is, it induces TYPO3 to instatiate a be user object, 
but not fill it up.

I have observed that FF3 has some pretty aggressive session preservation 
mechanism. Sometime when you quit FF3 (FF2 does it too, but no so often) 
without logging out of an application and you start FF3 again, you find 
yourself automatically logged in (even in applications that don't have 
"permalogin" features). This seems a bit abusive...

Cheers
