Shawn:
OK, sounds like the problem is not with a SeaMonkey incompatibility then – I wonder if it might get confused as I’m already logged into bugzilla in the same suite session.
So the compat patch is just this one: http://pastebin.mozilla.org/678828 :)

@Kairo

It will save your password if it gets the expected response (201), but it won’t if it gets any other. Sounds like gerv’s API is misbehaving because you shouldn’t be getting an empty response.

Hmm, I pulled the repo, just added SeaMonkey as compatible app in the install.rdf and everything works, I just get a message back on replying that complains about an empty response from the server, is that normal?
And also, is it normal that it requests my login and password on _every single_ reply?

@Waldo
You have hg access – go ahead and land those. Thanks!

@Fabrice
I had thought about it, but your add-on is more generic and supports all Bugzilla installs, and Trac, and another one I think. The REST API is only available for bugzilla.mozilla.org, so I’m not sure it’s a good fit with your add-on. FWIW, I use your add-on too!
