Just to make sure I understand it right; the credentials you use with http auth are in general different from the ones you use for normal mediawiki login?

I my case yes, though I suppose there would exists configurations where they are identical. Maybe it is not clear but this authentication happens with the web server, apache, nginx, etc, through http headers.

Please note that #30 documents PR #29, but not this one (#27). Sorry if I induced some confusion, the messages were identical and could be mistaken for duplicates. Can you add a line for this one as well?

Nah, Github's PR workflow is somewhat clunky IMO. Thanks :)
