The problem is...

you've said "showas asdf password"  "next"

so... anything that gets selected... showas asdf.

but "next" is not really a valid selection criteria.

so perhaps we need to default to the showas user on a "next/active/inactive"
request.  

If you'd done...

    showas asdf password asdf next

there'd be no confusion.

since the risque code is perl (vs. the usual C++ classes) that'd explain
the difference.
