Hi Steve B, The one problem with doing it this way is you can't use ClientLogin (the mechanism setUserCredentials invokes in .NET) when using the JavaScript API. The reason for this is because if you did, then your username and password would be exposed in the JavaScript for anyone who wished to view the source files on your mashup.
Unfortunately, in this particular case, where you want to retrieve a private feed and display it publicly, you need to--as you have already mentioned--code your own server page in one of the other languages (.NET, Java, PHP, Python.)
