Hi Owen,

I did make some changes to how errors are handled in 1.3.0. I tried and 
failed to get a nice looking 401 error page if someone failed to enter 
credentials so this may account for the change in behaviour. I'll take 
another look but I may end up removing the error-page config if I can't 
find a proper solution.
