   A Q-restricted account actually can perform a "normal" login by prepending a   
   '*' to their login-id.

   You can set SCFG->Servers->Web Server->Login Requirements (in v3.20a) to "REST   
   NOT Q" and then Q-restricted users won't be able to authenticate with the web   
   server. There's probably other ways to limit access to (e.g. webctrl.ini files   
   and maybe something ecWeb-specific), but that's a true brute-force way.
