i have a custom front page with a flash animation. i removed the $messages and $help divs from page.tpl to stop interfering with the appearance. so failed logins (wrong uname or password) get no warning except the username field turns red. it would have been good if this module (which i use anyway) were able to redirect failed logins too (to /user for example, or configurable).

core authenticates the user in the validate stage of the form cycle. as far as i know, there's no clean way to do a redirect in the validation cycle, and i'm not going to drupal_goto(), so this feature is dead unless somebody comes up with a sane solution to that problem. looking at the form workflow in 7.x, i don't think it's possible.
