Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gwibber

Gwibber has no accounts. I am setting up a twitter account. I clicked
authorize.

What happens:

A little twitter web page opens in the gwibber application and asks for
my username and password

What should happen:

I expect my webbrowser to open a new tab with the twitter "authorise
this application" page. I have already signed into twitter on my web
browser.

The point of OAuth is so applications don't have to save passwords,
however i can't know if gwibber is saving my password.

Gwibber doesn't use webbrowser to authenticate twitter, instead asking users to 
put in password into the application
