Moving Search and Login forms

[jmc]

Hi, all!
I'm working on a custom theme in which I wish to move the login and search forms into the index to save the extra clicks! Cutting/pasting the relevant html code for the forms is simple enough, but I wonder... are there any security considerations when doing so? I'm not a php guy and worried that I may be opening the gallery up to some kind of problem further along the line due to removing the click-throughs.
Thanks for any help

I can't see any particular security-related issues in having a login form on every page (of course with a conditional, so it is only displayed when a visitor is not logged in).
