 My wife is (finally) getting to work with WordPress at her job. As a
 relative newcomer to *really* digging into WP, she's hitting on a couple
 of things that I tend to just gloss over and ignore. One of them was this:

 She wanted to log in to wordpress.org, but had forgotten her password. She
 did a password reset, and of course, afterward, she wanted to go back and
 manually reset her password to something she'd remember. So she went to
 the main wordpress.org homepage, only to find that there's no login link
 or any other indication of where one might go to change your password.

 Of course, *we* know that you can get those links from the Support forum
 or the Extend area, but for her, it was not immediately obvious.

 I just thought I'd suggest that the login block should appear on all pages
 of the site, not just on a few select ones.
