Comment (by henry.wright):

 The behaviour of register, activate, login, lost password and reset
 password links is inconsistent in general in a network install. I've tried
 to describe the behaviour below.


 __Context: I am in the **root** blog__

 wp-signup.php (stays in same blog)
 wp-activate.php (stays in same blog)
 wp-login.php
  - log in (stays in same blog)
  - lost password and the redirect location after (stays in same blog)
  - reset password and the redirect location after (stays in same blog)

 __Context: I am in a blog__

 wp-signup.php (jumps to root blog)
 wp-activate.php (stays in same blog)
 wp-login.php
  - log in (stays in same blog)
  - lost password and the redirect location after (jumps to root blog)
  - reset password (link to it in email) and the redirect after (jumps to
 root blog)

 I don't see a reason why we should ''jump to'' a different blog. Blogs can
 use different languages as @johnbillion pointed out above and this will
 cause confusion for the user.
