= Description =

When using mod_python, I can no longer redirect the logout request.

== Steps to reproduce ==
## Describe the steps needed to reproduce the bug. If we can't reproduce it, we  probably can't fix it.

Our internal authentication system works similar to http authentication, but the user must request a page from the
authentication server in order to complete logout. I redirected logout via the following while under cgi


== Example ==

{{{#!python
def weblogin(request, **kw):
    from MoinMoin.user import User
    user_obj = kw.get('user_obj')
    logout = kw.get('logout')
    u = None
    if logout:
        url = u'http://server/logout'
        request.http_redirect(url)
        return user_obj, True
    ...
}}}

Is this approach correct in the first place?

This worked under my initial setup using cgi, but breaks under mod_python.
I can hijack the logout by modifying {{{MoinMoin/theme/__init__.py}}} , but I would like to 
keep all my code separate for obvious maintenance reasons.

= Discussion =
I guess the problem is related to not calling request.finish(). This needs someone running mod_python to debug the request code.
