At first blush, Bruce's proposal makes sense to me,

work the same way as an 'email me a login link' works now. It
would automatically log you in if you weren't already logged in.
Mark -- On first sight, I kinda like this, except for the
potential for forwarding, and accidentally granting someone else
access to your account. Having specifically requested a
link to log in, folks are unlikely to forward that email...this is
not necessarily true with an ordinary group email, especially if
the poll is mixed up with other messages in a digest.
With these things considered I'd still prefer that we provide
separate links for each poll response and record the vote that
arrives via clicking each link without logging anyone in.

Bruce,
Help me out here, because I'm not sure how your recommendation
solves the problem you state. Let's say there are separate links in
the email as you recommend. Let us then say I forward my email to
Joe. Joe clicks the link and votes without logging in. That's the
same result as in Mark's recommendation.
All that said, as yet another owner of 99% email groups, I strongly
approve of this proposal, however it eventually takes shape.
