Twitter Hijacking

I just noticed it and was wondering if anyone else had.  Twitter has their
"authenticity_token" as a 'hidden' input on forms...including password
changes, resets, etc.  Anyone tried hijacking a twitter login to verify this
is bad form (no pun intended)?  Don't want to re-invent the wheel if someone
already did it.

If someone has tried it successfully, has it been brought up to the twitter
folks as a push for full SSL sessions?  (yeah, I know SSL is also having
issues at the moment, but still...)
