  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...
