[Kimchi-devel] [PATCH v4] [Wok] Bug fix #147: Block authentication request after too many failures

Also, when I enter invalid credentials, I got the error:

Authentication failed for user '%(username)s'. [Error code: %(code)s]

I know it is correct, but it seems not a friendly message.
Maybe we could log that message (to use when debugging) and show on UI:

The username or password you entered is incorrect. Please try again.

(the same message we had before this patch)
