The specified size for the AuthenticationDialog's getInitialSize() is too small on certain HiDPI displays. By removing the override, Eclipse decides an appropriate size based on the dialog content, ensuring that the user can see all components in the window. (This fixes a situation where, for myself and most of my students with newer laptops, none of the input fields for username/password were visible in the authentication dialog because the window was too small.)

Thanks for the pull request. This problem is fixed in the separate dev event tracker branch, but hasn't yet been merged back into master. I'll check this change against what's already in that other branch to make sure they align properly.

Thanks. This is my first time using git or contributing to an open source project, so I appreciate your time and efforts.

No worries--we appreciate the contribution, and there's no way you'd know about what was going on in a separate experimental branch. I just want to make sure the two line up. This is definitely a bug that needs to be fixed in the master branch.
