Description
From https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2617.txt
The Authorization header may be included
preemptively; doing so improves server efficiency and avoids extra
round trips for authentication challenges. The server may choose to
accept the old Authorization header information, even though the
nonce value included might not be fresh. Alternatively, the server
may return a 401 response with a new nonce value, causing the client
to retry the request; by specifying stale=TRUE with this response,
the server tells the client to retry with the new nonce, but without
prompting for a new username and password.
Currently CheckAuth just returns if it doesn't find the nonce in its cache. Would be nice to support stale=TRUE.
