[jQuery] username and password parameters for XMLHttpRequest

[jQuery] username and password parameters for XMLHttpRequest

Hi, I've been using jQuery for my projects and I'm loving it. Just
would like to post a feature request...
I'd be nice to have the username and password parameters for
XMLHttpRequest built in the $.xml function, so that HTTP
authentication requests can be made through ajax. AFAIK these params
are generally supported.
More info here: http://www.peej.co.uk/articles/http-auth-with-html-forms.html
Thanks.
