One thing to point out is that there can be at most a single TLS provider

that there would be an auth plugin that other plugins could plugin to?
Seems reasonable.
Though I have to say I like how you extended the keywords!
Indeed.
One thing to keep in mind while talking about STARTTLS and AUTH together
is that it's important that we allow admins to choose whether AUTH is
available always or only after TLS is negotiated. We also want to
selectively offer such features depending on remote IP (or maybe local
IP).
