What is this for?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Elevate provides an extra layer of security beyond initial user authentication.
Views can be decorated with ``@elevate_required``, and then users must
re-authenticate to access that resource. This might be useful for deleting objects,
canceling subscriptions, and other sensitive operations. After re-authentication,
the user has elevated permissions for the duration of ``ELEVATE_COOKIE_AGE``.
This duration is independent of the normal session duration, allowing for short
elevated permission durations while still retaining long user sessions.
