Hello, I am new to rails/ruby. I have been experimenting with simple authentication filters... filtering protected controllers with an authentication action that delegates authentication to an authentication controller and the underlying "Person" model. When the user is in the process of a http GET, either via bookmark or otherwise, it''s easy to ''bring them back'' to where they were via redirect_to :back or storing back-uris as session variables and redirecting. What I am looking for is a complete idiom to seamlessly interject authentication mid-stream without disrupting workflow--for posts and gets with arbitrary parameters. Key use case: user fills out a huge form, but goes to bed before submitting. The next day, he/she submits the form but their session is expired. They should be prompted for a login, then the post should proceed without any loss. How is this done?
