Unless we are talking about different things, I believe that this is in fact the case. There's _always_ (preemptive auth scheme notwithstanding) only one instance of authentication scheme within a complete authentication cycle. One may take this one step further and persist (cache) authentication schemes between method invocations to avoid re-authentication against the realms HttpClient already has authenticated with.
