Can't change API key to choosen word via webGUI?

[sander]

Hi,

I can't change the API key via the webGUI to something I choose myself (like "testing123"). Is this meant behaviour?

Longer drescription:
Because I have a SAB client on Android which needs the API key, and copying/pasting the long API key is difficult, I filled out my own API key in the SAB WebGUI (Plush, sab 0.6.14). However, as soon as I click on "Save Changes", the old API key is filled out again. Nothing happens in the sabnzbd.ini. So this doesn't work.
My workaround: hand-edit sabnzbd.ini, and fill out my "api_key", so api_key = testing123. Then restart SABnzbd, and it works. I can then use the type-able new api-key in my android client.

So: is this as it should be?

Yes it's by design.
Release 0.7.0 will be able to show it as a QR code.
