Toby can do that to turn off the prompting for now, but the dialog
that asks for the login and password with a checkbox that says "Save"
should still work ;-). That's a lot more intuitive to the casual user
than bringing up the SVN Repositories view.

Where is that password information stored, by the way? I didn't see it
in my .eclipse directory anywhere. Is it encrypted?

It would be nice if it used the same policy as the Subversion command
line, so that if you've used the command line to previously authorize,
then Subclipse wouldn't even ask.
