-Site functions should continue to work with Javascript disabled.
+Standard forms across on Allura have a `_session_id` field inserted by JS.  AJAX forms insert it themselves.  This is for CSRF protection.

+For the standard forms, we can make them work without JS by inserting the field server-side instead of client-side.  The `ForgeForm` class seems like a useful place to do this.  Other manually-constructed forms (e.g. I know ForgeImporter templates have some, others are around too probably) will need it in the jinja template.
