Need way to de-authenticate.

Something like

delete socket.auth;
socket.disconnect();

doesn't do the trick?

yes, that would be one way to do it... but wouldn't it be more "socket.io"-y to emit a unauthorized event.. and similarly.. NOT disconnect the host socket.. but leave it open, for possible re-authentication, manipulation, etc?

bump --- i was hoping to use 'deauthenticate` in my example app :-)

I have a need for this as well.

I'm not currently spending time on this project, but PRs are welcome.

If I have a couple extra cycles, I'll take a stab at it. I just worked around it using my redux flow for now with an auto reconnect.
