Well,
I used lynx for years because  until 3 4 years ago, for visual impaired was difficult to use firefox or internet explorer.
Now, if things are not changed, the major problem of lynx is that was unable to manage java or javascript. Do you think that the login form use a javascript?
If yes, this problem could be solved implementinga login alternative method that doesn't use javascript.
Lynx supports well cookies.

I imagine this is not very important for many people, but I must underline that drupal is the more accessible big cms  that I have used.
