Subject: [Kimchi-devel] [PATCH] Avoid show user/password in url browser

There is a remote, but real, possibility that kimchi.min.js breaks and is not loaded for some reason in Kimchi login page. If this happen, the form submmit action is not going to be binded to a javascript function that calls a AJAX POST request. Then the browser is going to submmit the form in the default way: using a GET request. GET requests add form data in the URL, so user will be able to see the user and password in the URL field and in the log:

"GET /login.html?username=321&password=234 HTTP/1.0" 200 2936 "https://localhost:8001/login.html" "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Fedora; Linux x86_64; rv:39.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/39.0"

This patch fixes this problem adding 'method="post"' in the login html form.
