Issue Information
====================

Priority: Major					Status:      Open
Resolution:  Unresolved
Project: LocalChat (LOC)


Reported By: btasker

Targeted for fix in version:

Issue Description
==================

The command line option --auth should tell the client that the user wants to add Basic
authentication (or maybe digest) headers to every request. 

Once the client has launched it should prompt the user to enter the credentials (we don't
want them on the commandline as they'll appear in ps output).

The use-case is an extension of that for --verify. If I "hide" the server under
https://www.example.com/mysecretchat I may want to ignore (or better, 404) any requests
that do not include a valid authentication header so that the path cannot so easily be
discovered.
