Apparently they do either ISO-8859-1, or use the UA's locale (see
discussion on http-auth).
I haven't tried RFC5987, but I'm pretty sure nobody supports it (will
add test case soonish).
We may want to leave "realm" alone, and instead add something for
display purposes ("prompt", "name"?).
I don't think this needs to be done in httpbis; we can do it later if
there happens to be implementer interest.
Best regards, Julian
