Description
<COPYURL url="..." password="..." downpass="...">comment</COPYURL>
The only required attribute would be url. So <COPYURL url="..."/> would also be accepted.
The proposal is for a user to create a GreaseMonkey script that extracted header information from the DOM and put it into the comment. The password field would also be gathered by the GreaseMonkey script.
Linkgrabber could also scan the comment for the password. The minimum change to LinkGrabber would be to add password=".*" to the regex. The other change would be to put the data into the comment field.
Time estimate assumes no actual XML parsing is used.
