There are a number of plugins designed to address these issues, but
including these features by default would solve a lot of security problems
out of the gate and would be more secure / reliable than depending on 3rd
party plugin developers:
* 2 factor authentication
* ability to hide / change the login url to something different (to help
prevent bruteforce), e.g. "admin.example.com"
