Remember to log out when using a browser curl etc. #12

Basic Auth appears to authenticate users fine - hooray!

However, when accessing it via a browser curl tester like Rest Console or Postman, if that browser is already logged into the site (as admin for example) then the POST functions (insert post, change post etc) fail.

Not a bug per se, but a real gotcha for anyone testing the api...

I have this issue too. Any ideas on ways to resolve this issue? Thanks!
