Yes, I missed the default parameter on get_environ. I'm sure I will be
doing a lot of refactoring over the next while. I should stop now re-read
all the Quixote source now that I've been using it a while.

The double whammy for me is this is my first project of any significance in
Python. Thankfully the deadlines are my own to set.

For this application I redirect users to the root page once logged in, if I
can't determine where they should be sent back to. Its a sanity thing, past
experience shows I get support email if I don't.
