New issue 15493 by dim...@chromium.org: XMLHttpRequest in Worker does not  
pop up HTTP Authentication dialog
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=15493

..instead it just stops executing the script.
Not a security issue, just a bug.

Repro:
Try to load http://figushki.com/test/xhr/http_auth/load_protected.html

The worker created on this page tries to load the file protected by HTTP
authentication.

Expected result:
(as happens in Safari 4 and FF 3.5): The browser pop ups a dialog asking
for password. Once password is entered, subsequent XMLHttpRequests do not
need the dialog while browser stays open.

Observed result:
No dialog, page 'hangs'.

You may look at source of the test at http://figushki.com/test/xhr/http_auth
