I inserted the following HTTP hyperlink containing an embedded username/password
into an OOo Writer document:

http://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/private/login-test/

When I click on the hyperlink, I expect OOo to log into the Web site with the
username and password provided in the URL; instead, OOo prompts me for a
username and password.  (The same thing happened in OOo Calc, so my best guess
was to file the bug under "ui" rather than any specific application.)  When I
paste the URL into Firefox, Firefox goes directly to the page without prompting
for login information.

My résumé mentions a Web application I wrote that requires an HTTP login, and I
wanted someone reading the résumé to be able to enter the application by
clicking a single link without having to enter login information.  It would be
great if the "Insert -> Hyperlink" dialog had boxes to type in the username and
password for "Web" links just like for "FTP" ones, but what I care about now is
for an HTTP hyperlink containing a username and password to work seamlessly.
