In my case where a user will have 5 - 10 auth-profiles, all those ending
with (Basic) does not add info for my users. And IF I think it is
helpfull to know if it is either a 'Postgres' or a 'Basic
Authentication' profile, I can add it myself to the title of the profile?

In my case, the widget is used for a little more: it actually not only
defines the username/config, but also the actual url-api-endpoint the
users connects to.
o in my case 'No authentication' does not cover the content... If I
could choose it said: 'Please create a profile' or so.

I have been looking at:
https://qgis.org/pyqgis/master/gui/Auth/QgsAuthConfigSelect.html

But I do not think I have a handle to change or reach the actual
combobox is it? To either change the caption or so?

Anyway, thanks for all this. Besides this minor points it works great.
