Re: [libvirt] [dbus RFC 05/11] connect: don't use default libvirt authentication callback

We need to implement our own authentication callback because the

For now we will require usage of client configuration file for libvirt
to provide credentials for drivers that require authentication [1].

This is a long standing bug we should look at fixing one day. We should
make it possible to rely on the auth config file from a simple call to
virConnectOpen(), so people only need to use OpenAuth() when they have
a genuine callback to provide....
