Basic auth can be used by supplying URLs like http://user:pw@example.com/feed .
The authentication in URL approach is powerful enough for most use cases. The only advantage
that the UI that is about to be removed here would have had is that it could change
basic auth credentials for a series of feeds in a single spot. Will post this patch
on the issue queue for further consideration.

Add sourceSave() and sourceDelete() methods notifying plugin implementers of a source being saved or deleted. Minor cleanup on sourceForm().

#701432 pounard, Will White: PHP 5.3: array_shift() expects parameter 1 to be array, null given in (...).

Throw appropriate errors. Add an @ to suppress debug output when SimpleXMLElement constructor encounters problem. Output exception message (on FeedsSource level) instead.

  FeedsSimplePieParser.

  formalize feed elements.

This is a preemptory step to enable cleaner result handling and prepare the ground for Batch API use.
