Description

When creating an HTTP URLConnection calls to ConfigurationFactory.authorizationProvider(props) always passes the result of PropertiesUtil.getProperties(). This makes sense when trying to access the Log4j configuration but if authorization providers are needed for other purposes there is no way for them to create an AuthorizationProvider without creating a new factory.
