Abstract:
   This document specifies extensions of HTTP authentication framework
   for interactive clients.  Recently, fundamental features of HTTP-
   level authentication are insufficient for complex requirements of
   various Web-based applications.  This forces these applications to
   implement their own authentication frameworks using HTML Forms and
   other means, which becomes one of the hurdles against introducing
   secure authentication mechanisms handled jointly by servers and user-
   agent.  The extended framework fills gaps between Web application
   requirements and HTTP authentication provisions to solve the above
   problems, while maintaining compatibility against existing Web and
   non-Web uses of HTTP authentications.
