Hi Tamás,

I just looked at the source code, and it appears a 200 response might be
returned in some cases.

I've just committed a change that will always send back a challenge in all
cases except when 1) the user is already authenticated and 2) if they're not
authenticated yet but they've successfully authenticated during the current
request.  This should be the case ;)

Cheers,

Les
