 its a good idea. the implication is that we have hardcoded
 'bb_current_user else die' stuff all over the code. also we will need to
 make a few changes to the database if we want to fully support anonymous
 posting, because currently posts and topics require an author. the plugin
 that i have added will just set the author as '0' (zero).

 what do you guys think?
