> Currently the HTTP module includes the ability to support a preemptive {{Authorization: Basic-Auth <base64>}} authentication.   (This is one where the client's request includes the Basic-Auth header providing correctly encoded credentials allowing the client's interaction with the Broker to be 'single-shot', without the need to separately authenticate a session).  This is very useful when scripting with tools such as {{curl}}.
> This ability should be generalised so that other types of preemptive authentication can be supported too.  One example would be a OAUTH's bearer authorization header {{Authorization: Bearer <token}}.  See [https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6750#page-5].
