> After adding BulkRecordWriter (or actually ExternalClient) the ability to=
 make use of authentication I've noticed that exceptions that are thrown on=
 login failure are very misguiding - there's always a "Could not retrieve e=
ndpoint ranges" RuntimeException being thrown, no matter what really happen=
s. This "hides" the real reason of all authentication problems. I've change=
d this line a bit, so all the messages are passed without any change, so no=
w I get - for example - "AuthenticationException(why:Given password in pass=
word mode MD5 could not be validated for user operator)" or - in worst case=
 - "Unexpected authentication problem", which is waaay more helpful, so I s=
ubmit this trivial, but useful improvement.
