Is possible to use googlecl to upload videos to youtube w/o the need to link accounts? #330

I'd like to be able to upload videos without having to create a new gmail email 
address and link my youtube account to it(I created this account just for that 
purpose but I like to keep things unlinked if possible). 

So I'd like to request a password parameter so I can upload videos using a 
statement like this:

youtube post -user MYUSERNAME -pass * <and the rest of the parameters: tags, 
title, ...>

The asterisk means that the password will be typed once you hit enter and it 
wont be visible on the cli prompt.

Something similar to this (step 3)

Thanks.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Type youtube list, input your youtube user name,
2. attempt to grant access to the account,
3. Get an error message because my youtube account is not a valid account

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? What
version of gdata-python-client (aka python-gdata)?
googlecl-0.9.11-win32.zip

Please provide any additional information below.

I'm not sure if this is possible, but I'm looking into it.  Given the other 
problems people are having (Issue 213) I hope it is.

That's exactly my problem (I cannot use my youtube account directly), it would 
be nice to be able to use a username/password combo for those of us that just 
want to upload videos easily.

Thanks.
