No, we are in agreement about the intended behavior. I think you are seeing a bug. What version of git produced it?

With my http-auth series, I get:
  $ git push https://github.com/peff/git.git
  Username for 'github.com':
  $ git push https://peff@github.com/peff/git.git
  Password for 'github.com':
Using v1.7.7 produces similar results.
