Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
During a recent journal migration, we came upon a request from editors for the ability to put specific pages on the website under a password:
"Can specific Janeway site pages be password protected (for instance, for journal-sponsored events that precirculate papers, which should not be available for the general public)?"
We decided this should be discussed as this may be a useful feature for others.

Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by turning the editor-controlled, page-specific password requirement into acceptance criteria and locating the relevant page and editor-authentication entry points; done is not defined in the report, so maintainer agreement is needed before implementation.
