Would not be just nice to include puresasl already? So the end user has just 
one dependency to take care of (kerberos in this example). I think that if he 
is not using Kerberos but some other SASL backend (I do not have a clue what 
that might be right now), it would be already in and he does not need to do 
anything.

Check this, it actually requires puresasl to be present so we are only making 
it aligned with what driver wants:

> Currently the Cassandra drivers offer a plugin authenticator architecture for 
> the support of different authentication methods. This has been leveraged to 
> provide support for LDAP, Kerberos, and Sigv4 authentication. Unfortunately, 
> cqlsh, the included CLI tool, does not offer such support. Switching to a new 
> enhanced authentication scheme thus means being cut off from using cqlsh in 
> normal operation.
> We should have a means of using the same plugins and authentication providers 
> as the Python Cassandra driver.
