now supports AngularJS semantics. also now it doesn't needlessly create sessions.
helps establish csrf protection. done in /server/user and /server/up/extended, the two main places which an interactive app will hit early.

To the best of my knowledge this looks good, from visual inspection and from test. (A malicious web page posting to the server got the 401 response generated by the CSRF filter.) +1 |
