-1 to 'admin'; it implies that logging in is an administrator-only 
function, which isn't necessarily true in all use cases (e.g. on plone.org).

+1 to 'login' - it's a common enough word that most people would know 
it, and if you have other needs, well, it's one line of ZCML if we do it 
with a view to make a different name.
