== Example ==

If you are asking for the RSS feed of a non-public project, you can call for http://trac.something.com/aproject/login/timeline?...format=rss and you'll be asked to type in your http authentication data (unless you are already logged on) before you'll be (re)directed to the actual RSS feed provided by http://trac.something.com/aproject/timeline?...format=rss...

Works with every other Trac page, as well...
