I'm using the secondary menu to put a few links at the top right of the screen. Among them should be login (if not already) and logout (if logged in). Adding them to the menu is, of course, not an issue, but how would I control their appearing or not based on whether the user is logged in?
That's automatic if you use the paths "user/login", "logout", and "user/register". (BTW their visibility isn't magical or anything, It's controlled by the access callbacks in user_menu()).

Thanks! Not quite a forehead slapper, but clearer in hindsight! I did have logout (but of course, was logged in as admin while doing this) but had ?q=user instead of user/login. With the zillion lines of code I've seen in my years, I'm still often humbled by the simplicity that results from the design, like here. Magical.
