The authenticators now have an encode function that cloudstack will use to encode the user supplied password before storing it in the database. This makes it easier to add other authenticators with other hashing algorithms. The requires a two step approach to creating the admin account at first start as the authenticators are only present in the management-server component locator.
The SHA256 salted authenticator make use of this new system and adds a hashing algorithm based on SHA256 with a salt. This type of hash is far less susceptible to rainbow table attacks.
To make use of these new features the users password will be sent over the wire just as he typed it and it will be transformed into a hash on the server and compared with the stored password. This means that the hash will not go over the wire anymore.
The default authenticator in components.xml is still set to md5 for backwards compatibility. For new installations the sha256 could be enabled.
Fixes a bug where the loading state is not immediataly set for the
detail view on performing certain custom UI actions, particularly
enable static NAT.
This passes a separate 'start' function to the custom widgets, which
triggers the loading state, and 'complete' when the action
completes (i.e., the server call is done)
Currently, the IP addresses section and PF/LB/FW rule configuration is
disabled for shared networks; this change enables it for any shared
network with the source NAT service enabled. This makes the UI the
same for how it is with isolated networks.
For compact detail view (quickview), don't execute tabFilter, as only
the first tab is rendered in all cases. This prevents excessive API
calls from being made, slowing performance.
After adding a new instance row, in some cases the list view's context
is not passed fully to the quickview, which broke certain sections.
This ensures that the full context stored in the list widget is passed
to the quickview.
-Adds tooltips to all dialog-based form fields, to describe what each
field represents. The tooltip appears on focus of the field, and
hides once the field is blurred.
-Documentation content is pulled from a new namespace
'cloudStack.docs', under docs.js. A new attribute, 'docID' is then
specified on each createForm field to link the field to a specific
tooltip string.
-If no docID is specified, then no tooltip is rendered.
-This only applies to the 'generic' forms that are rendered using the
createForm widget
-This still needs to be localized

If elastic LB service is enabled for a shared network offering, add a
checkbox to associate public IP. This passes new option
'associatePublicIp=[true/false]' on creation.
Fix case where quick view was removed instead of hidden by a dialog
before performing an action, which casued the list view row to not
update on completion
On hover of a breadcrumb, show an overlay effect which focuses on that
particular panel, hiding all panels after it.
This allows a user to see the content of previous breadcrumbs that the
user loaded.
