This one surprises me... and indeed just doing a quick test request with
curl I see the proper behaviour:
curl -s -w "%{http_code}" -u foo:bar -G
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces.xml
returns "401". And so does:
curl -s -w "%{http_code}" -G
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces.xml
What's the exact request? And what client are you using?

Good suggestion. I suggest you open an improvement request in the bug
tracker... or even better yet submit a patch :)
