The idea is to *not* have the user type in the domain name, but rather
let him/her choose one, just like what happens in webadmin. We should
try and minimize typing as much as possible when it comes to mobile apps.
I think this was done on purpose for some reason to not provide a public
api for the rest api, but i could be wrong and don't remember the detail.
as the concepts of multi tenancy and multiple domains grow, providing
the list of domains is considered an issue, and most systems today
require user to provide their full user/domain (well, usually in the
form of their email address).
