Description
Ideally :
- Have a checkbox "Provide credentials" beneath the url input field
- Show login and password beneath when it's checked
- Save credentials in the app. Secured enough ?
- Perform the proxy request and provide these credentials in the headers

Research direction
Start by locating the URL input and the proxy request path described in the issue, then trace how calendar credentials are stored and sent. Done means the interface can reveal login and password fields, credentials persist securely enough for the app, and authenticated webcal requests include them in their headers.
