	Hmmm, convoluted but presuming the "login" third party site uses
cookies... Would it be possible to use Javascript on the client "copy"
the HTML from the third-party and then transmit it to the application
rather than having the application trying to do a direct fetch given
just the URL?

	This should keep the authentication local to the client machine.
