[[cat-users]] Default/enforcing of realm on Android "eduroamCAT" app + displaying a note

Hello,

In the CAT, for a particular profile, I can set two options: "Verify user
input to contain realm suffix" and "Prefill user input with realm suffix".
I've ticked these and the Windows CAT will do exactly what it says. However,
on Android, the username box is blank on entry and I can happily enter a
username without the required suffix. Would it be possible to extend the
same functionality to the Android version of the tool?


As an aside, I'd like to put up a message telling our users that the
"password" is not their normal password but a special one we issue for
eduroam. The only mechanism I've found to do this is via the "Terms of Use"
function. This is fine and does the job, but doesn't seem quite right. Is
there another place where I could put such as message?

As an aside to the aside, the Android app prints the terms and conditions on
both the initial "Configuration File Summary" / "Support Information" screen
that appears AND in the dialog box that appears when you push "Install" on
that page for you to press "Yes" to and confirm. This seems a bit
superfluous and I'd favour removing it from the former so it just appears in
the dialog box.


Apologies if I've missed an email or bug report about these!

Thanks in advance,

- Bob
