Statistics on login page

As Horizon only has the priviliges that the logged in user has, it's not really clear how to implement this in anice, clean, upstream-compatible way. Currently we have an external datasource (cron scripts) that put data into memcache, and Horizon reads those. This way, only the cron scripts need to have privileges to access statistics. These privileges can be easily configured (and restricted to the proper levels) in policy.json.

Whiteboard
[david-lyle | 2015-08-26] The identity model here is not really supported upstream. The final feedback on items like this would be add a customization hook into the splash screen to populate with your custom methods. But this as a general feature in horizon doesn't really work.
