It seems we should start by sorting out the mechanism by which the
client can control what authentication mechanisms it accepts. In your
patch set you introduce a connection parameter saslname. I think we
should expand that to non-SASL mechanisms and have it be some kind of
whitelist or blacklist. It might be reasonable for a client to require
"gssapi" or "cert" for example or do an exclusion like "!password !md5
!ldap".
Thoughts?
