Stijn,

I see what you mean without even looking at the code. Hardcoded
credentials is obviously a no go, but since MV uses OAuth, there must
be way to overcome this problem? (Again, I'm not a developer)

kindest regards,

Martijn

For example take a look at the evernote example source code: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~unity-team/unity-place-sample/trunk/view/head:/src/daemon.vala , The login details are hard-coded in the vala script and I don't think unity has any dialog/password support build-in. I would certainly try if I could write C or vala (never heard of vala before) just for the kicks of it. But do you understand the problem?
