I'm agree with you, it is more a fillCredentials() problem, it would be
better to construct the credentionals.userName as an empty string instead
of a null one. But because it was (at least), an enhancement, i was only
"replicating" the effect.
I've Uploaded in my GitHub account, the .oxt (the extension itself), so
everybody who wants, could test it. As far as i've tested, it seems that in
linux and windows the extension works great.
