Got Account locked: too many failed login's, which is good, except No warning or block until after PW reset and PW change. 90+% sure info was right.

I'm sure this is rare, and low priorty I think you should add a final warning before block. It was ironic I was only blocked after getting right password, and 90% sure it was right. Also block did not last very long, by the time i found my way here it had unlocked.

Summary, Warn before block, and possibly make block longer. Or each progressive lock longer, in the case of malicious intent.

I was pointing out a rare problem. I would not even call it a bug or an error. Possibly so rare no point in fixing it, or worrying.

And I thought I was sending it to The developers, rather than to everyone.

But adding a pop-up or prior warning would be an improvement.
