So, initially I thought the problem here was that the request needed to be
retried and when using a manually set Authorization header, retries do not
happen automatically (Question: should this be documented in the implNote? I
think it probably should be).
Then I realised that was **not** the problem because the Authorization is being
provided pre-emptively and no retry is necessary. The actual issue was that the
manually set Authorization header was malformed and was missing the "Basic"
scheme prefix.
