Comment:

 I don't see a great benifit in changing this for this fringe case.

 To be honest if you start adding requirements like HTTP Auth into the mix
 it is just going to get messy.

 I assume this site doesn't support pingbacks or trackbacks either because
 the remote servers sending those def won't have credentials.

 If we need some extra API to support sending AUTH that is a new issue and
 should be a new ticket.

 Closing this a INVALID.
