Auth-Type needs to die. I seriously think it should be replaced with an attribute named:

Sounds good to me. Almost all uses of Auth-Type are wrong. Third party documentation and "howtos" are almost all wrong. The main difficulty is that deleting it now will break many configurations. Maybe a solution is to add huge warnings to the debug output saying "THIS IS WRONG. IT WILL BREAK YOUR SYSTEM.". But the people who need to not use Auth-Type may not read the debug output, either...
