That's a really neat solution, and avoids the cognitive overhead of having to remember yet another password (or the security risk of re-using passwords). I particularly like the way you tie the log-in token to a particular browser session so that it can't be hijacked!

Plus by merging all of the log-in paths (registration, 'forgot password', and normal login), you have one thing to design and secure rather than three. That seems like a huge advantage from a security perspective.
