#274 User access to shell

I recently forked a repo (from a project that I am not a member of), which of course created a user repo. After a while I found I needed to do something arcane to it that required shell access. All the docs for shell access specify that you must log in to USER,PROJECT@shell.sourceforge.net to create the shell.

In the case where you only want to deal with user-level data, shouldn't it be possible to log in to a shell without specifying a project? (Or if this is already possible, can it be documented somewhere?)

(In my particular case, I happen to also own a project, so I was able to specify that to resolve my issue; which is why this is a feature request rather than a support request.)

    USER@shell.sourceforge.net works and "USER,PROJECT" is not necessary.
