	Hi,
Matt suggested in his Account management that the server will ask for
credentials with an information for which "source" this request is made,
so the "auth_required" signal may contain this information. I'll add a
strv parameter to that, just for being ready even for more expansion.

What kind of information will be known in this parameter depends on the
receiver for the signal. Let's have it opened for now, but I believe
this may cover your issue too.
	Bye,
	Milan
