User Authentication and Management

So, you're writing a Flask web application and would like to authenticate your users.
You start with a simple Login page, but soon enough you'll need to handle:

• Registrations and Email Confirmations
• Change Usernames, Change Passwords, and Forgotten Passwords

And wouldn't it be nice to also offer:

• Added security
• Increased reliability
• Role-based Authorization
• Internationalization
• Support for multiple emails per user
