That's unfortunate, because this is not a prio feature for me to work on personally. Also, as this is not an actual bug I will move this issue to the feature-request tracker instead.

Hi,
-----
Reproduce with:
Setup: 
    curl_easy_setopt (m_curl, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
    curl_easy_setopt (m_curl, CURLOPT_UNRESTRICTED_AUTH, 0L);
    Authorization header set with CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER
Case: 
    HttpStatus Found with redirect to different host
Result: 
    Authorization header is sent to different host
Expected: 
    (fails) Authorization header is not sent when redirecting to different host
-----
This does not seem to be by design. We are using token based authorization, so curl API for setting USERNAME and PASSWORD authentication cannot be used.
Related code: 
http.c(717): result = output_auth_headers(conn, authhost, request, path, FALSE);
Thanks
