Larry McCay commented on KNOX-2655:
-----------------------------------
Moving this back to the 1.6.0 release since it represents credential hygiene
and security. I'd like to get this into the 1.x line before moving on to 2.0
with the next release.

> There is no valid reason that I can think of to allow userinfo in a URL for
> an application/UI that is participating in KnoxSSO. The userinfo is used to
> login to hosts/pages that are protected by HTTP Basic. This is contradictory
> to the use of KnoxSSO to begin with and complicates the regex pattern
> required to indicate those URLs that are allowed for redirect and/or dispatch.
