Alexander Klimetschek commented on SLING-175:
---------------------------------------------
The trick is to do the login with a dummy login XHR request in the background.
If it works, the credentials stay cached in the browser and are then used for
normal browser requests. It's a bit tricky, but we also got an logout to work
(sending invalid credentials in an XHR to "reset" the browser).
