Re: gnome-wide authentication dialog



Small followup since it seems I suck at explaining something in English
;)
This so called 'authentication dialog' currently pop up in Nautilus to
ask for login/password when trying to access to a samba share or a
webdav location. Any gnome-vfs module can invoke some callback to ask
for a login/password if it needs one, this patch makes in sort that any
app linking against libgnomeui is able to pop up a nice dialog when such
a callback is called.
(I can't send a link to a screenshot, my web host is down atm)

Hope things are clearer now,

Christophe
