I'm a bit confused on this point; I hope the proposed method wasn't to 
actually re-implement digest auth! ;-)   As long as just the 
$REMOTE_USER environment variable is used, then both digest and basic 
should work fine (plus any other methods, like auth tokens, etc.). Am I 
somehow mistaken, or is "digest" just being misused?
