I'm assuming it'll be generic authentication. What information will be
made available to the auth daemon? Just the Authorization header?

I would love a feature that allowed any/multiple header to be passed
through. We use haproxy on an API service, which all incoming requests
must pass in a key and signature. The signature is a hash of a secret
token, the URI and several headers. Currently each backend application
that receives the request has to perform the authentication, but it
would be awesome if we could leverage this auth daemon to perform the
authentication before passing the request through.
