Description Jesse Glick 2013-02-27 15:11:47 UTC

If you enter the incorrect password or API token for a server, NB remembers the login failure and does not prompt you for a login again. That is fine if the login dialog was shown passively—probably you do not want to be bugged by this dialog over and over if you actually have no login—but bad if you really meant to login and want to try again.
