That's not code we support, and I probably should have changed the package 
names before I let it out. I donated it as a favor to Kevin.

Lots of it dates from other people creating a monster of a plugin for 
confluence, and I mostly just keep it working for my purposes at this 
point. The code is a disaster, so if it ever moved into "supported by me" 
mode, it would have to be rewritten.

However, that said, the Jira I run has that property commented out, and we 
don't allow local login, and it's not been a problem. There are some 
places where the login UI does appear unavoidably because Jira is not well 
designed for this, but basic login up front works.

So I don't really know if that code is different than what I use, or 
whatever, but we seem to have the username coming from REMOTE_USER 
successfully.
