I think I pulled it off! I'm posting this remotely, connecting to cosmic
via ssl and logging in with username / pass. This is fantastic. You can
still read-only connect anonymously to cosmic, but if you have a local account you should be able to use it to post now as well.
The more I think about it the more I think this is a great compromise: you
can read from the outside, but posting is limited to actual community
members. Free/unfettered access appears to just about universally be a calamity, because people suck.
