calibre server says the username

Bug Description

When I access the server from the browser shows the typical screen where it asks username and password, as well, plus it appears:

http://s**ci**alibre.dyndns.info:8080 está solicitando un nombre de usuario y una contraseña. El sitio dice: "Password to access your calibre library. Username is libreria"

Security bug I see is that 'libreria' is the user must put in the box where it asks "UserName"! (luckily in the text also does not appear the password is chosen, if not).

Showing the username is deliberate. Hiding user names is not a form of
security. Security depends on the password.
