Not sure which version of HTTP Client you're looking at, but the 2.x versions, 
including the nightly builds, already have precisely the behavior you describe. 
See the basic() method of Authenticator for the implementation.  In fact, this 
behavior is documented in HttpState's setCredentials:

     * When <i>realm</i> is <code>null</code>, I'll use the given
     * <i>credentials</i> when no other {@link Credentials} have
     * been supplied for the given challenging realm.
     * (I.e., use a <code>null</code> realm to set the "default"
     * credentials.)

See http://nagoya.apache.org/gump/javadoc/jakarta-
commons/httpclient/dist/docs/api/org/apache/commons/httpclient/HttpState.html#se
tCredentials(java.lang.String, org.apache.commons.httpclient.Credentials)
