the audioplayer is installed at a riding arena, were everyone can connect to an open WLAN.
This WLAN (OpenWRT router) only allows acces to the moOde player and redirects all requests.

So everyone, who connects to this WLAN can use the audioplayer.
My problem was, that some users tried to figure out what they can do with moOde and even changed the network config...
So I added password protection to avoid additional work for me :-)

I think, this is a very specifific usecase.
But perhaps it is usefull for peoply with curious kids.
Even better would be a kiosk mode, which completly hides some menu entries... but didn't try to implement it, yet.

I think this is pretty cool. I have a potential usage scenario in mind, a bit similar to Highsider's usage scenario, a guest-room audio player. Guests connect to a guest WLAN and can access the player but we don't want them to access and change settings. It's something I have previously briefly considered and this mod would make it viable.
