I will take a look at the issue Jan brought up shortly.  My eventual goal is
to have something akin to the IMP drop-down folder menu in Gollem that will
allow a user to switch backends.  If a particular backend has not been
authenticated yet, then the user will be redirected to the login page.  This
will allow us to get rid of the "Change server" menu button.

I do apologize to everyone for making this Gollem authentication stuff a bit
broken.  However, the auth code really needed to be brought inline with how
we do authentication elsewhere so this was my motivation.  The biggest issue
has been that the application I ripped most of the code out of (IMP) does
not have to deal with multiple backends that 1) are open simultaneously, 2)
deal with logins via the VFS class, and 3) deal with backends that don't
require authentication at all.  Bear with me as I sort all of this out.
