Is it possible to add a feature to pass the http auth type/username/password as inputs to the node?

I know this is simple for Basic auth to just set the headers, but much more complex with Digest. The node supports digest so the complexities of this must be built into the node code.

Is it possible to be able to pass in the parameters for the auth in the incoming message?
