Authentication for RPC and HTTP

Both for RPC and HTTP an authentication package is needed. Do you plan to add it in Go
1.1?

Comment 1:

Authentication means many things to many people. We need to make sure it is possible to
hook authentication in, but it is probably not a good idea to bake in one specific way
in the standard library. In both rpc and http you can already do authentication, whether
by custom codecs in rpc or a wrapper handler in http.

Status changed to WontFix.
