check classes:
class:tslib_feUserAuth which extends class:t3lib_userAuth
also have a look at the form-fields that is ouput by EXT:newloginbox.

It's pretty easy using EXT:auth_services for that kind of task:
http://typo3.org/documentation/document-library/cc_sv_auth/

That would be the "nice"-way.

You could of course extend auth-classes yourself or even manipulate 
$GLOBALS["TSFE"]-Vars(not suggested at all!).

Hth,
Peter
