Username and no javascript

[taruti]

Currently when javascript is not enabled gitit shows the user as not logged in in the userbox.

E.g. 0) Configure gitit to use http authentication

1. Setup e.g. nginx as proxy
2. Visit gitit and login via http
3. "Login Logout" displayed in userbox
4. Spend lots of time debugging why the authentication information is not passed to gitit
5. Notice that it is just hidden when Javascript is not enabled in the browser

Could a CSS trick be used to get the username when there is no Javascript or at least display something less confusing in the userbox?

Sure, a noscript tag might help here. I'd accept a PR.
