The purpose for this status code is in case someone is looking over yourshoulder in the same physical location. That's why it's fine to be anLSD (least significant digit / optional) code, it's a snazzy featurethat's nice to have but not mandatory. I think it's a good feature.

It doesn't send it unencrypted (i.e. same as any other request) so it'snot security theatre. It's there so people in the same location don'tsee your password.
