With EVE on sale and me enjoying trading cards, I decided to test out the steam integration just for "fun."

The first issue is the brand new experience. The client installed, launcher updated, and when everything was patched I was left with a username and password field. I had no username or password. I had to close the game out and relaunch to get the steam autologin to work.

It might be nice to have a launcher option to not auto-login with steam, but be ready for you to click login. This would allow a person with multiple accounts to still use the steam launcher without having to quit the login on the steam character first. I'm not sure how many people would actually do this, but would solve some pain that otherwise is only alleviated by having two installs.

Overall, things worked very smoothly, and I can log in using steam's SSO to get API keys. So, great work on everything except the two things I came up with above!
