> MainClientExec directs the route, establishes connections, handles target authentication and handles proxy authentication. It is involved with both the connection/route management and the authentication semantics.
> It is currently too hard to intercept/handle httpclient requests without serializing them in a socket first. If the authentication was handled in a different class, then the connection route/timeout management, it would be easier to provide custom handling on the client side using the complete request (including auth headers).
