Hi,

this is a SVN patch request.

Type: Security enhancement/ feature

Branches: trunk (please read [1] for an explanation why trunk only)

Problem:
#16437 introduces a new form protection API that is currently not used
anywhere

Solution:
Use the form protection in the install tool and the user setup

Notes:

Test this in conjunction with #16437

Until the next beta releases I want to convert all backend modules to
use the dispatcher, so that the some of the initialisation and token
persisting can be done in a central place.

Of course more places need to be handled for a complete CSRF protection.
This will be done latest until the firt release canditate.


Regards Helmut
