CookeCrumblerIssueTrackerProduct is a subclass of Shane Hathaway's CookieCrumbler product which makes it possible to login for two weeks rather than just one session. The templates are written in ZPT which makes them easier to maintain.
This is just a fancier way than to Export a Zope instance of the Cookie Crumbler. As an instance this has been used for a long time already on the Real Issue Tracker and you can see it if you click the Login link in the menu.
The CookieCrumblerIssueTrackerProduct is for those people who have one or more issue tracker instances and wants to move on from a Basic Authentication popup and/or to redesign/rebrand their login prompt a bit more.
It works just like any Cookie Crumbler instance. You just create an instance in either your issue tracker instance or somewhere in its parent object in Zope and then it just starts to work.
The "auto-login" feature enables you to login not just for one browser session but for two weeks (this number can be changed) so you don't have to log in again for a while.
In the next IssueTrackerProduct release after version 0.6.13 there will be a "Log out" tab on the main navigation bar that will be able to work with CookieCrumblerIssueTrackerProduct that appears if and only if you have logged in via an instance of the CookieCrumblerIssueTrackerProduct.
