I struggled to get Installer to work with this scheme, because installer 
works on a per repository-host basis.

e.g. With installer you do

repository := Installer monticello ftp:'ftp.myserver.ba' user: 'kph' 
password: 'mySecret'.
repository project: 'Testing'; browse: 'SUnit-kph'

It seemed quirky to have to do:

repository := Installer monticello ftp:'ftp.myserver.ba' user: 'kph'
repository project: 'Testing'; password: 'mySecret'; browse: 'SUnit-kph'

So I changed MCPasswordManager to be on a per-repository-host basis. I 
figured that would be ok until someone complains. I dont see a need to 
have multiple squeaksource accounts, but someone might disagree with me.

To be honest it is probably my hacking in this area which broke it, 
Edgar might have just got unlucky and picked up a version before/during 
the time I put this scheme in place. I also imagine that Edgar has a lot 
of repositories in his list, so hopefully this is fixed.

best regards

Keith
