Hi, I have some questions regarding basic auth and proper support in 5.3: do you know when it would be released? Are there any requirements of ZK authentication must be there as well?
Do we store the user/pass in ZK? SOLR-7274 pluggable security is already in 5.2 (my requirement is to provide user/pass in a secure manner, not as argument on cmd or from (our unsecured) ZK but from a configuration restful service, I'm not sure 5.3 release would fit above requirement, can you reflect on this? Providing my own security.json + class/implementation to verify user/pass should work today with 5.2, right?
