Issue Summary
Would it be possible to configure login by MAC Address? A user's device may pick up different IP Addresses if DHCP is used, but the device's MAC Address would always remain constant. One for consideration anyway. Thanks.

According to this http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1420381/how-can-i-get-the-mac-and-the... the MAC address is not transmitted via HTTP - so some system-level calls would be needed.
Happy to review a patch if someone finds a good, secure, cross-platform way.
