Comment (by ryan):

 Patch moves the POST handling code into functions, making the template-y
 bits easier to read.  retrieve_password(), reset_password(), and
 register_new_user() are defined at the top of the file.  All of them
 return WP_Error objects in the event of an error.  wp_signon() is defined
 in user.php and is meant to be reusable.  The logout code moved into a
 wp_logout() pluggable function. wp_login() is deprecated in favor of the
 new wp_authenticate() function which returns a WP_Error object rather than
 setting an $error global.
