I disagree.

If the transport is HTTPS (and not just HTTP), the server can request
the client to send a certificate, exactly as for EPP over TLS.

In such case, for *any* HTTP request coming to the server, the server
theoretically already knows to which client this pertains as it can
consult the certificate given.

It can be considered a weak or partial authentication, until the EPP login
is successfully executed.

Are you talking about a signle server or a load balancing architecture where a proxy routes the requents to a pool of backend servers?

In addition, it is quite simple to do at socket level. It seems to me much more complicated at the servlet level.
