A how-to or tutorial document for using authentication views and forms is needed

[Daniele Procida]

There's are some substantial documents in /topics/auth/, but there isn't a step-by-step tutorial or how-to.

There's a need for it in the official documentation, because:

• it's worthwhile getting users started on the right track, so that they don't find themselves doing it insecurely or incorrectly
• there are plenty of questions on the subject on StackOverflow and elsewhere
• there are numerous (often out-of-date or incomplete) weblog articles circulating on the subject

Probably a how-to is more appropriate than a tutorial.
