Description

Currently, as I can see, if the user types in an incorrect username/password pair the default /login page will be shown again without any explanation. IMHO it would be nicer if there was a default error message about the failed authentication.

Research direction

Start at the authentication failure path that returns the default /login page and inspect how login errors are currently handled. Done means an incorrect username/password pair causes the login page to show a default authentication-failure message.
