Re: [jbosstools-dev] how to disable Eclipse UserValidationDialog?

Hi Snjezana good point! I already found out about this when looking at different Eclipse plugins. EGit does it, Scout and apparently ECF, too. Quite a mess to be honest: A bad API in the jdk UrlConnection, a poor implementation in org.eclipse.ui and here we are: plenty of plugins overriding the Authenticator with unpredictable results.
