Released date: 2007.02.05

[Comments]
Added support for a very cool new feature. The Authorization Alert dialog should now fairly
accurately show the host name corresponding to the socket connection, as you were likely to
have typed it (in the web browser, or on the command line, etc.) instead of relying upon
the ever-so-fickle reverse dns records. Specifically, if you type yahoo.com into Safari, then
the authorization alert should actually read yahoo.com instead of w2.rc.vip.scd.yahoo.com,
which is popularly believed to be somewhat less useful. And no, it does not just strip off
everything prior to yahoo.com. You'll need GlowWorm FW (not Lite) to use this
feature. There's a free demo. Try it.
Fixed numerous inconsistencies related to Auto Answer, that should make life much more sane
for many people.
Finally fixed some focus issues, so that after you answer an Authorization Alert, the focus
should switch back to whatever application you were in before the alert was displayed. Also,
the Preferences window for Menubar.app should not receive the focus when it is opened, instead
of coyly hanging out in the background.
