Basic Authentification fails with non-ASCII username/password characters

Mike,
I do not like the idea of using non-ASCII characters in 'Authorization' headers,
at least in those headers only. Probably we should introduce an option to encode
HTTP headers using ISO-8859-1 or UTF-8 to accommodate for all sorts of
not-so-compliant behaviors with regards to HTTP header content. This said, I do
think that digest scheme user names are not meant to have non-ASCII content, as
it would constitute a gross violation of the RFC2616. But I do admit that it can
be subject to different interpretations

I am +1 to stick to ASCII for the 2.0 release, as least for user names

Oleg
