#5 Cannot return to user authentication after login failure

Milestone: v1.0 (example)

Status: open

Error: If there is a user authentication set for a particular directory, and the user at the web interface enters incorrect credentials, he is led to the "401 Unauthorized" page. From this point on, he cannot refresh the page or go back to the main page, refresh that and click on the directory again to supply the correct credentials.
Current Workaround: The only workaround currently is to delete all cookies and authenticated sessions and go through the process again.
Fix: This needs to be corrected so that the cookies expire once the page is refreshed.
