Currently, rqbit lacks built-in support for simple authentication, making it challenging to secure access to the daemon without relying on external tools or reverse proxies. Adding a straightforward username and password authentication mechanism would greatly enhance the usability and security of rqbit for users who need basic access control.

This might be a bit of an overstatement, at least without TLS :) But agree there is some value in it. Do you propose to wrap the whole API into basic auth, or leave ability to do read-only calls without authentication?

The whole API is good for me.
