#handle_pubcookie_ondemand(location = request.env["HTTP_REFERER"]) ⇒ Object

This sets the OnDemandKey cookie, which Apache uses to redirect to the login server. For the most part, you want “location” to be the referer (e.g. login redirect), but for pages protected by a :login_required filter, you want “location” to be request.url, thus it’s parameterized
