Olivier,

I'm still a little perplexed, see below.

Originally, I thought your points were against HTTP auth, but now it
looks like they were for it?

This doesn't come up for me.  I secure my site in such a way that you
don't get any widgets until you're authenticated and authorized.  I
thought you were referring to a more fine grained authorization scheme
where certain widgets appear only for certain users.  That sort of
entitlement management goes beyond authorization, and the point I was
making was that it seems somewhat orthogonal to what protocol you use
for auth.
