User interaction for authentication





------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2004-01-29 12:54 -------
Odi, I think it is a better approach. I especially like the idea to abstract 
away all the credentials persistence/retrieval logic. There's one catch, 
though. The patch in its current form simply does not attempt to provide any 
recovery mechanism for authentication failures, leaving the user without any 
possibility to re-authenticate if given credentials are invalid. I believe 
there has to be a way to discard the existing credentials and prompt the user 
for new ones, which basically brings us back to my patch, albeit without global 
CredentialsPrompter. 

If you like I can take your patch as a starting point and add missing 
functionality from mine.
