The logical place to do this would be "hgtk commit," which I thought
already did do that on the first run. Making the change there also means
that Linux and Mac users would benefit as well. Unfortunately, simply
running "hg commit" definitely does not prompt. Since, at least
currently, Tortoise avoids overriding the behavior of the command-line
tools, and because we know that at least the person installing the
software probably wants to use it, I personally think that asking for a
username and password during install still makes sense.
