As always, the site depends on JS which is blocked.

More concretely, the "Register" and "Login" buttons (actually, <a>'s)
must be driven by some dynamically-registered javascript handlers for
their "onclick" events. Each handler, when run, hides one tab and
unhides the other. Since JS gets blocked, the handlers do not get
registered.

And this is what my fix does, it adds such javascript handlers. What's
interesting is that doing this takes ~16 lines while the site, if
allowed, would load 2 libraries.

It would also be possible to design such site to instead have handlers
registered via HTML attributes (which would break with LibreJS too) or
to have tabs show/hide using CSS and radio buttons tricks (which would
work with LibreJS)
