    Ok, I'll use HTTP_REQUEST
    
    my point about the openjdk was just that we need to provide this value, 
nothing more...
    At the moment I see it as a "security metadata" for AuthScope, which is 
required to make requestPasswordAuthentication work correctly in all cases.
    
    As far as I get it, the other option is to add a parameter to 
CredentialsProvider.getCredentials...
    eg   getCredentials(AuthScope authscope, HttpContext httpContext).
    But that's a much larger change...
