Description:
When installing MySQL Enterprise Monitor, to enable checking online for new versions of advisors and updates to contracts you need to provide your enterprise.mysql.com / support.mysql.com login details.

This isn't optimal as it is a personal account. It would make sense to have a non-personal identifier or some automatic function instead.

How to repeat:
N/A

Suggested fix:
N/A

Still broken in 2.2.3.1745.

Possibly a security hazard if passwords are not stored encrypted in the mem db which is probably necessary for you to extract them and attempt the login to the enterprise web site.
