Summary: login.py issues
Initial Comment:
When running "login.py -all" the following error is shown sporadically:
Logging in to wikipedia:??
Login failed. Wrong password or CAPTCHA answer?
Bot does -not- stop then, but does not login either. Also with API_login, by the way
(seems to happen more often with API).
2. With API_login enabled, it isn't shown that you have new messages on a certain
wiki.
3. If bot is blocked on a certain wiki, no warning message seems to be shown anymore.

The bug is still there. the pywikipedia scripts allows edits under IP
name. So please fix it or a lot of bots will be blocked because of bad
written python scripts.

Important: With API_login enabled, a bot does not stay properly logged
in!
Thus, my bot sometimes also edits as IP when using API_login (with block
of IP that's not funny ;-)

@1.: See "??" replaced by a certain lang code, of course ;-)
@3.: Applies for both login methods.
