   > Not sure why this is a concern? Locking down endpoints to a specific role 
(or roles) is why we have the authorization framework. The introduction of the 
`MultiAuthPlugin` really has no bearing on how people choose to configure their 
permissions.
   
   Yes, probably you have a small set of BasicAuth users for tools, and if 
those tools only need R/O access to some endpoints then the security is good. 
But if you want all of bin/solr features to use BasicAuth, then you need to 
give that user several WRITE/ADMIN permissions, and a PW leak becomes a real 
convern.
