Jesse MacFadyen commented on CB-52:
-----------------------------------

Tricky, but that is just an implementation detail. 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_access_authentication

Could a developer not just use the header which I think is already supported.
i.e.
Authorization: Basic QWxhZGRpbjpvcGVuIHNlc2FtZQ==
                
> API: FileTransfer - Basic Authentication

> I'd appreciate an optional parameter for FileUploadOptions allowing to pass 
> Basic Authentication credentials. Combined with HTTPS, Basic Authentication 
> can introduce minimal security when upload files.
