Description

It would be nice if the authentication realm object could be configured in the same easy way as the rest of the clientConfig.

Something like:

clientConfig.realm.type=Digest&clientConfig.realm.user=someUser&clientConfig.realm.password=somePass&clientConfig.realm.preemtive=true

etc

Today there is really no option other than using the AHC RealmBuilder directly (which is more cumbersome as the actual values are externalized - and thus plumbing is needed to read these, build a realm, and set it on the component.
