+On the other hand, clearing the page's whole content essentially means deleting

+The only way to have a private ikiwiki, with a shared user database for static pages and CGI authentication, is to use [[plugins/httpauth]]. It would be good for httpauth to be on par with [[plugins/passwordauth]],
+i.e. to allow registering users, resetting passwords, and changing passwords; supporting some kind of
+`account_creation_password` configuration option would be nice, too.
+
+I'll probably propose patches implementing this at some point.
+I've not had a single look at the code yet, but it may be nice to factorize
+the relevant passwordauth code, instead of rewriting it completely in httpauth.
