Well, the goal for me was not to define anything new, but just to 
extract what we have already into something that can be maintained 
separately from DIGEST. As such, Hervé's comment made sense to me, and I 
updated the editor's copy accordingly:

 
<http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/draft-ietf-httpbis-auth-info-latest-from-previous.diff.html>

Maybe other potential users of Auth-Info (Yutaka & Alexey) could state 
whether having this constraint would affect their ability to use 
Authentication-Info?

Assuming that is not the case, I'd like to declare victory, submit a new 
draft, and ask Mark to start a WGLC...
