I don't know anyone who uses authenticated ZEO connections, does it  
even work? IMHO most people are in a situation where the traffic  
between the ZEO clients and the ZEO server runs on an internal  
network, so it simply doesn't matter. Or small setups where the  
communication is on one and the same machine.
