Hi all,

Been trying out F21 on my new laptop, and saw the nifty new captive auth
feature when logging into wifi at starbucks this morning.
You live in the greater Boston area and that's the best coffee you can
find?  That makes me sad.

I did notice that the name of the application (as it appears in the gmenu up
near the activities button) is "Captive Authentication". To a new user, that
may not know exactly what captive auth is, this may be worrying or confusing
-- "what about my authentication is being captured?"
It should be "All your network are belong to us".

Perhaps changing this to something like "Network Login" work work better?
More seriously, this sounds like a good change to make.
