I wonder if it would make the design more robust and future-proof to encapsulate this logic in credential.c instead. For example, we could introduce a helper function: void credential_update_url(struct credential *c, const char *url) that does what the new code added around credential_from_url() by this patch does, perhaps?Yeah, maybe. I'll think about this design some more.Sorry, I lost track. Did anything come of that discussion? No rush, since this change fixes an immediate issue and the helper suggestion is for long-term future-proofing. We can treat them as separate steps. Thanks.
No, I got sidetracked with other work and didn't get a chance to get back to this, sorry. It's not directly impacting my users since I can just tell them they have to use my server's FQDN, so fine with me to treat this as a low-priority issue. -- Aaron
