The thing is, that this is not cross browser compatible (I can live with that for now). Firefox for example (which is broken atm. anyway) can not deal with credentials given via URL. Which is correct, because it is not part of any web standard.
This must be noted in the docblock section, so that it will find it´s way into the automatically generated API doc page (plus, the docBlock needs an @api annotation).
Please also see the comments I´ve made inline in your commit.
If that gets fixed, I´m happy to get it in.

Having this method is better than having none.
