Title:
  Gwibber doesn't show an error when the Flickr username is wrong

Status in Gwibber:
  Confirmed
Status in gwibber package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gwibber

  When you enter the wrong username for your Flickr account in Gwibber,
  Gwibber silently fails, but doesn't notice the user. The user who
  entered the wrong username doesn't understand what happened and thinks
  Gwibber is broken.

  When you enter a wrong username, the following traceback is visible in
  the command line:

  ERROR:Gwibber Dispatcher:<flickr:images> Operation failed
  DEBUG:Gwibber Dispatcher:Traceback:
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/home/qense/Ontwikkeling/Ubuntu/gwibber/gwibber/gwibber/microblog/dispatcher.py", line 81, in perform_operation
      message_data = PROTOCOLS[account["protocol"]].Client(account)(opname, **args)
    File "/home/qense/Ontwikkeling/Ubuntu/gwibber/gwibber/gwibber/microblog/flickr.py", line 87, in __call__
      return getattr(self, opname)(**args)
    File "/home/qense/Ontwikkeling/Ubuntu/gwibber/gwibber/gwibber/microblog/flickr.py", line 91, in images
      user_id=self._getNSID(), format="json", nojsoncallback="1",
    File "/home/qense/Ontwikkeling/Ubuntu/gwibber/gwibber/gwibber/microblog/flickr.py", line 84, in _getNSID
      return tmp["user"]["nsid"]
  KeyError: 'user'

  The problem is worsened by the fact that you have to enter your Yahoo!
  username to access Flickr with Gwibber; your Flickr username -- if
  different from your Yahoo! username -- won't work. Noticing the user
  about this in the account creation window will help a lot as well.

  This issue is confirmed with the trunk.
