Description:
Workbench Bug Reporter fails to log in to report bug using valid credentials

How to repeat:
Experience a bug in workbench, choose to report bug, provide valid login credentials either for MySql.com or Oracle and enjoy experiencing login failure.

Suggested fix:
Pick one login authentication system for tools and stick with it.

my auth failed
