Webapp container: cannot login

[Alexandre Abreu]

When trying to login from the new webapp container in GMail (and in any google based app), the process fails since they switched to a centralized login mechanism. We are being redirected to https://accounts.google.com which is considered as breaking the webapp containment rules and is opened in the default webbrowser.

It prevents one from logging in.
