Comment (by bedas):

 Why is it hard to setup a local with SSL?
 It is really a quick thing to do, unless maybe I miss something...

 In any case, I cannot replicate this issue, and the issue description
 steps assume several unmentioned things, such as that for example the home
 of a website is an actual page, which it is not, by default.

 Despite hidden steps, and even implementing the hidden steps, I couldn't
 replicate the issue, ''there is no new login box'' at all since we are ...
 well, logged in.
 There is also no HTTPS issue, as long of course the local uses a proper
 SSL setup.

 If we where to not have a SSL setup and force SSL then I would expect
 issues, but that would be expected.

 If there is a need of using anonymous browsing etc, then this should be
 mentioned in the steps, but even so I couldn't spot any issue that
 wouldn't be expected.

 Hope this helps.
