I have different logins for the dashboard UI and the admin, and I want to EITHER temporarily disable the UI login, or add a second (disposable) UI login.  
Is this possible?

I'll answer my own question:  
go into NodeRed's settings.js file, and comment out the "httpNodeAuth" line with a couple of //.  
Reload/restart NodeRed ~ and now the dashboard _doesn't_ ask for your username & password.
