Didn't we agree to put those issues into the bitbucket issue tracker?
This functionality got broken when implementing the new inline edit functionality. Actually one has to "manually" check for the password. The old way
was that there web page asking for the web password, but if we do ODBSet via Ajax there is nobody who could fill out that form. So I added a
"manual" checking into ODBCheckWebPassword(). This will not work for custom pages, but they have their own way to define passwords.
