Comment:

 I feel like the name is_login() could cause confusion in that it could be
 referring to the current user (i.e. what is_user_logged_in() is for). This
 is already rather confusing with is_admin(), given is_super_admin() and a
 number of other functions (is_blog_admin, is_user_admin, is_site_admin).

 wp-register.php no longer exists (and for older installs, it simply
 redirects to wp-login.php). That means that is_login() simply returns
 `$GLOBALS['pagenow'] == 'wp-login.php`, which is not really much of a
 shortcut. Doesn't seem all that needed, in that case.
