   I will get a PIP out if relevant.
   
   @lhotari Regarding your questions:
   
   > 1. does this require also a similar change for
   > * the Pulsar binary protocol?
   
   I believe the Pulsar Protocol authentication only tries the specified 
authentication provider unlike the HTTP authentication which iterates through 
all available providers if none is specified.
   
   > * the Pulsar Proxy?
   
   This is a good point, if the proxy is authenticating HTTP requests then yes, 
might be useful there.
   
   > 2. Since the client can specify the authentication method, how does this 
improve security?
   
   This should make it harder to probe the system for possibly misconfigured 
authentication providers.
