[web2py] Does auth.requires() always requires login?

[Ray (a.k.a. Iceberg)]

Hi there,

Following code works in web2py 1.98.2. That is, to allow registered
users, as well as the system administrator (who always access the
system from localhost), to access data.

@auth.requires(request.client=='127.0.0.1' or auth.is_logged_in())
def secret():
    return {"": "some cool stuff"}

The snippet does not work in web2py 1.99.3. Looks like web2py 1.99.x
enforces user login in auth.requires(...). Should it be?

Any feedback is welcome.
