Authentication

Sorry boys. This looks like epic battle between dragons and egos. But I just want to vote (not even know if this is about vote :-D). And I vote AGAINST auth lib.

Reason: I would never use security class made by somebody else then me. It is sure that, I'm not the best of the best .... But security and open source together...smells to me. Such things have to be under control.
Laravel wants to give you all all all. But this is main reason to use CI. CI gives you just secure skeletal structure of app and everything else is up to you. You can add lib or create your own.

CI is great. I'm waiting impatiently to version 4.
