Basic authentication filling form support

[dmiwell]

Hi @subdavis

Thanks for working on the extension

Moving discussion from https://github.com/perfectapi/CKP/issues/195

It would be great to add support of http basic auth. There is no way to use this extension even manually on the page with basic auth at the moment.

It's possible with chromeIPass for example. I've checked what they do in the code and this might be helpful. Probably it will be possible on autofill click to refresh the page with keeping login data in mind and fill the form.

I'd be glad to help you with the feature, but unfortunately I don't have time to work on it yet.

I see what you mean now, @RaSpirit. I remember looking into that in the past, but I remember having some security concerns with their code. I'm going to take another look, as I think this would be a great feature to add to CKPX.

Cheers.
