AuthManager behaviour

While doing some checks with AuthManager (using HC4 and HC3.1) I noticed to
my surprise that it supported DIGEST auth while I thought it didn't.
At least it does with a Tomcat Digest auth.

1) Do you confirm it really does ?

2) Also something not clear for me, reading :
http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-ga/tutorial/html/authentication.html
It is said preemptive auth is not supported out of the box, and we need to
use AuthCache object but I see nowhere in JMeter code usage of this class.
So how come it works ?

3) Finally, I notice setting :
http.authentication.preemptive$Boolean=false
leads to preemptive auth being disabled for HC3 (Ok) , but also not working
for HC4 ? How come it impacts it ?

Thanks for clarification.
