> * I am reluctant to save a list of websites and passwords on the user's
machine. On the other hand, it's inconvenient to have to repeatedly enter
a password. So maybe we could allow saving the onion password behind a
master password, using Firefox's password manager? (I don't know anything
about Firefox's password manager yet. We would need the encrypted password
database to hide the list of individual usernames and sites.)
Got it. Saving credentials were something we talked about, but I can
understand the risks of it. If we are not going to offer this feature to
users, maybe an HTTP Basic Auth dialog box is fair enough. An UI like this
could works better.
> * I think it could be useful to mention in the UI that this is an Onion
Authentication (distinct from an HTTP Basic Authentication). Maybe we even
want a special logo. :) Also, it might help to include a "more info"
button or similar.
I'd love to include an onion+lock icon. I'll work on it :)
