Auth

Unlikely? Here's a promise: I am abandoning CodeIgniter if it gets a built-in "Auth tool". For the last time: not a f*****g chance this is happening while I'm around.

Create and use packages, stop asking for everything to be built-in. It's not possible.

Quick, someone make a PR with auth built into CI.  

However, he is right tho.  Auth should never be a built-in component.  There are a thousand different requirements for it.  No one will ever be happy.  Make your own, if you can't, then pay someone to make what you want, if you can't use someone else's library.  If you can't do that, choose another profession.
