Hi folks, As you may have noticed, the Flask-Admin based UI (non-RBAC) was already deprecated in the master branch. Some works are going on to further clean the codebase.
In the process, we found that there are some “legacy" modules in “airflow/contrib/auth/backends/ <https://github.com/apache/airflow/pull/4612/files#diff-fa19b36f43ec33307cd3ffe32f8b5397>“. Most of them should be removed directly, as they’re no longer applicable for the new UI. But there is one module, “airflow/contrib/auth/backends/password_auth.py <https://github.com/apache/airflow/pull/4612/files#diff-fa19b36f43ec33307cd3ffe32f8b5397>”, is used for API authentication as well. We would like to understand from the community, if anyone is using airflow/contrib/auth/backends/password_auth.py <https://github.com/apache/airflow/pull/4612/files#diff-fa19b36f43ec33307cd3ffe32f8b5397> for API authentication? This will help estimate & decide whether we remove it directly or spend some effort to refactor it. Thanks for your inputs in advance.
