Package: davfs2
Version: 0.2.3-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

Hi,
attached patch parses the environment for $USER,$PASSWD (like e.g.
mount.{smbfs,cifs} does) and uses these values as default (can still be
overridden on the command line of course). This solves the problem of the
password being visible via (ps awux).
Additionally http_proxy is parsed for a proxy, this variable is used by
wget, w3m, etc and is pretty much standard.
Does the patch look o.k.?
