Title
Have Cursor Appear Inside Text Field When Logging In

Short, concise description of the idea
When navigating to the login page, the cursor would automatically display inside the first/Username Text Field, ready for a user to begin typing.

Full description of the idea
Currently when you navigate to the login page (http://www.livejournal.com/login.bml) the cursor isn't in the first/Username Text Field by default. I'd find it nice to be one step closer to logging myself in, such is true at any number of other sites where you login (like Yahoo!). It always surprises me that we have to put our cursor there to start the login process (even though I've been logging in here since 2002...).
An ordered list of benefits
  • I love anything that speeds up the login process at a given site. I know it sounds lazy, but it's one less step toward being logged in.
An ordered list of problems/issues involved
  • Clearly this would require coding and implementation, but I've honestly no clue as to how difficult such steps would be. I think most users would welcome the change.
