      Description

      These days people use non-ASCII encodings for usernames and password. While other auth schemes like NTLM or Kerberos use Unicode by default, Basic and Digest were restricted to ASCII or ISO-8859-1 for a long time. Major browsers (Chrome + FF) now have switched to UTF-8. We should do that too.
