Excelente, thx Roan :)
Please make sure mw:API docs reflect the new behavior.
Thanks for reminding me, I'd forgotten.
I checked the docs, and it turns out the new behavior is *already*
described there, which is pretty weird:
In every call to api.php, the three values must either be passed as
additional parameters, or as cookies within the request header. If any
of the login values are given as part of the request, all cookie values
are ignored. Please note that user name is passed in as
'''lgname''',
but returned as normalized '''lgusername'''. The first is used for
authentication, whereas the second may be passed together with
'''lgtoken''' and '''lguserid''' as tokens
when making calls to other
modules.
