The "User login/settings" component should be split into "User login" and "Settings" (or "Preferences") since the two are seperate entities in the codebase and different logical sections. This would involve re-marking 110 bugs (as of writng) (see URL).
Which of these proposed components should cover "user and group rights" (e.g. bug 767 and dependent bugs)?

"User preferences" is a less ambiguous name for the second component, so that it clearly excludes site settings/preferences and access-control settings. > This would involve re-marking 110 bugs (as of writng) (see URL). I've recategorised bugs that seemed to belong to a different existing component. 78 remain.

Agreed, I've made a "User preferences" component, how about a "Session management" component for the first one? That would cover login/logout and session management in general (which is in Special:Log(in|out) and in the $wgUser object.

"Authentication, account creation & session management" would be more accurate, but it's too long and too technical. How about "User login/sessions"? The describecomponents page can take care of the details.
The bugs were "split" on June 24.
