To that end, I think SASL's confused everyone who's ever met it, and I don't think anyone actually asked for it back in binprot days.
Said I was going to do this before but hadn't... Lets try something simple, and if someone asks for SASL I think it's actually easy: client connect: set auth 0 0 [length] username password \r\n ... and if you get back a STORED, you're good to go. if you try to run any other command you'll get: CLIENT_ERROR unauthorized password database is a username:password\n file on disk, reloaded when it changes. no fancy datastructures so will get slow if people use a billion users. user's don't do anything, but putting them there now in case we ever decide to. if we ever decide to support SASL again: client connect: get mech-list MECH CRAM-MD5 PLAIN ETC END set sasl-step 0 0 [length] data STORED get authenticated [indicates done or STEP if SASL requires more steps] ... extra roundtrip in the protocol but this could be solved with mget/mset.
