------------------------------------
[~noble.paul], [~sarkaramrit2@gmail.com], is there a reason why this would NOT work out?

> If someone seeks to enable basic authentication but they do not specify the {{blockUnknown}} parameter, the default value is {{false}}. That default behavior is a bit counterintuitive because if someone wishes to enable basic authentication, you would expect that they would want all unknown users to need to authenticate by default. I can imagine cases where you would not, but those cases would be less frequent.
