		Kequc on Sept 11, 2013 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Identify with email: no need for passwords Allow the user to sign in with their password, if they cannot remember their password or would rather sign in with their email then allow them to receive an email containing a token that logs them in. From their account settings they can change their password. This is already how most websites work isn't it?

Kind of, the only thing missing is proper user experience. Like having an input for e-mail and another button right on the login form.
