The connection to the downloader API has been re-organised to enable authentication:

Server host and port fields have been united into one 'Server link' field.
Redundant username and password fields have been replaced by 'API token' field that is used in the header of each GET request.
If the API token is invalid on initial connection, the user is specifically informed about this.
