GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 587117
tp-haze MSN has password entry before account

install tp-haze and remove butterfly (so you can select msn-haze) now create a new account and you will see that it asks for the password before asking for the account name
looks like mc_protocol_get_params retuns params in inverted order

I'm not sure about this. I'd be tempted to say that, as soon you're using the generic widget you loose anyway. The right thing is to write a specific widget.
The generic widget should special-case the well-known fields like 'account', 'password', etc., and put them in the right order with sensible localization etc. Then all the fields it doesn't recognize could either be ignored, or dumped into Advanced. (But I think there should be a specific widget for MSN with Haze, too.)
Fixed in git, checked now
