Agreed. I think we can close this issue now.

(At first when I saw this I thought there might be an issue
with regards to having clear implementation requirements.
I.e. what is the minimum that an implementation has to do.
But then I realized that the way that we are apparently going
to write this is that the additional authorization mechanisms
are optional, i.e. the minimum you have to do is to always
do the test. It doesn't matter if you support certificates or
xmlconf admin interface or look at the moon's phase...)
