Sorry to be a little slow to this one. I'm taking a look at the patch now, and will add my $.02 shortly.

User interaction for authentication
------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2004-01-29 12:54 -------
Odi, I think it is a better approach. I especially like the idea to abstract
away all the credentials persistence/retrieval logic. There's one catch,
though. The patch in its current form simply does not attempt to provide any
recovery mechanism for authentication failures, leaving the user without any
possibility to re-authenticate if given credentials are invalid. I believe
there has to be a way to discard the existing credentials and prompt the user
for new ones, which basically brings us back to my patch, albeit without global
CredentialsPrompter.
If you like I can take your patch as a starting point and add missing functionality from mine.
