Rails Forum annoyance

Check it out.

You want to read some Rails goodness at the awesome Rails Forum so you're gonna log in, right? You type in your email address or username, finishing the first of three steps. You aren't my mom, or your grandfather, or any of the other myriad computer users and/or internet logger-inners, so what you don't do after this is reach over for the mouse and click on the password field. We've seen those people, and it's fine for them, but we are power users and possibly even touch-typists. We want to read, we want to help, and we want to get past the login. Without the mouse. So after typing our email address, we hit the Tab key to hop on over to the password field so we can authenticate and be on our way.

Well, maybe.
