I've forwarded this to bugzilla,
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=553690

I'm also submitting a patch to CUPS to allow setting a per-http
connection password callback function. Once that's in, I'll submit
another patch to GTK+ to allow password prompting for IPP connections.
This'll probably take some time though.

Cheers,

Jelmer
