I know that Denis changed it and it makes sense to keep this in sync. We
just don't know about these details. And we have to put comments in the
source code to remind us.

And to be honest, I am not sure if anybody really tested it. I only know
of one public network that requires username/password for their APN. I
need to get a SIM card from them once I am back in Germany.

Then we have to do that in the callback in an extra step. I don't really
like it, but seems the way to go. Please send a patch that also changes
this for MBM devices. We really wanna keep these in sync.
