These are just some ideas, mind you. Many people (you sound like such a person) can develop their applications quite securely once they can step back and see the big picture and follow a few general guidelines, such as not trusting data from the client. In this case, the data from the client is like a driver's license, and rather than just use the license number, we're also checking their photograph and other personal information, so that an imposter has a more difficult time. :)
Thanks a lot! We have actually decided to use the fact that Register_globals off will end up paralyzing our legacy stuff to write a core object system that will be shared among all of our customers and have security built in at very low level. So you actually did help in projecting a number of sites security by answering to my annoying questions :)) I made sure you got credited for this on the source docs.
