session_auth blocks RoutesDispatcher

tools.session_auth has a problem to use with RoutesDispatcher?.

1. Routes maps "secure/subpage/*subpath" to controller. "*subpath" is free part.
2. Open url "/secure/subpage/1" in your web browser.
3. Login screen will be shown.
4. Click a button to POST to "do_login" with parameters.

Then...

  File "[cp_installed_path]/cherrypy/lib/cptools.py", line 268, in run
    return self.do_login(**request.params)
TypeError: do_login() got an unexpected keyword argument 'id'

Some dispatchers and tools like RoutesDispatcher? injects extra entories into cherypy.request.params. But session_auth can't accept an unexpected parameters.
