It seems to me that all you said applies to HTTP/1.1 as well. My 
understanding was that how authentication works should be orthogonal to 
the HTTP message format, and thus whatever needs to be fixed should be 
fixed for both message formats. As such, I would expect this to be 
material for the new http-auth WG.

Best regards, Julian
