Subj : Methods for logon

For a while I've been using Nightfox's DDLoginMatrix mod to customize the logon
process on my BBS.

However, I recently got the itch to try writing my own logon script. I wanted
to build something using the Frame.js, Tree.js, and Typeahead.js libraries.

Anyway, I have something now that's working, but I had a few questions for DM
(or whoever might know).

The first: is there a way to do something like bbs.logon() method, but without
the builtin password prompt? I'm looking for a way to handle the password input
prompt myself. Once I had the user's input, I would pass it to the logon
method.

Second: Is there a way to do the same with the system password? If my script
detected the user was attempting to logon to a sysop-level account, I would
build my own password prompt, then pass the user's entered system password to
the logon() method.
