Expected Results:  welcome text should position above autologin text, or

duplicate your sequence from 8.0 and compare to deps / grep code sequence for
"new" login page. probably a single-letter text misspell somewhere.

Hi,
I'm going through bugs assigned to me and attempting to clean some of the older,
fixed ones up.

This bug hasn't changed in over a year old now.  Are you still seeing the problem?
