James Flemer commented on QPID-5922:
------------------------------------

Awww... this makes "demo mode" much more work.  As a note ... RabbitMQ only 
supports PLAIN and AMQPLAIN (https://www.rabbitmq.com/authentication.html).  
This "fix" means that RabbitMQ and Qpid interoperability is broken except over 
SSL.

Maybe a user who knows what they really want should be able to set some 
property or config option to allow insecure authentication.

> [Java Broker] By default restrict the use of PLAIN authentication to secure 
> channels

> PLAIN authentication sends passwords in the clear - in general this should 
> not be used over communication channels which are not themselves encrypted.
> For any given authentication provider we should allow the user to set the 
> subset of SASL mechanisms which should not be offered if the attempt to 
> authenticate is not occurring on a secure channel.
