Comment (by redsweater):
Ah, good point. So I guess wp.login() would be more appropriate for the
name? I think this should probably come down to a discussion of whether
WordPress core developers are comfortable with the API providing any
affordances at all for helping clients to gain full login permissions.
Personally I am for it from the point of view that because the API and the
web interface both use the same credentials, absence of full login
permissions is only protected by obfuscation of the login URL, and the
challenge presented to developers of simulating a web-based login
procedure.
