Gave this a quick test on the lastest master branches. Setting a default realm
works as expected. The statefulness of the login window even if a default
is configured [your 2] still feels odd to me, but as you have said, this is consistent with
PVE and can be changed in a separate series, if we decide that we want that.

Only skimmed over the code since I already did a review of v1;
looks good to me so far. The nits that Shannon raised can be fixed in v6 or in a followup.
