 When submitting from an external form to wp-login.php:

 <form action="/wp-login.php?redirect_to=%2F" method="post">

 everything operates normally if the user is authenticated on the first
 try. He is properly redirected to the redirect_to URL, which is "/" in
 this case.

 However, if the login attempt failed on the first try, and a user is
 passed to the Wordpress login page, redirect_to seems to be lost in the
 new form, and the user will be redirected to his profile page.
