> Doesn't work using non-ASCII chars for username and/or password for BASIC authentication.
> We noticed it when we looked on JIra issue https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBEAP-3603.
> We JBoss EAP 7 expects encoded UTF-8 strings in code. But we didn't find any information about it in specification.
> It works with Chrome and Opera, but it doesn't work with Firefox.
> Since there is no documentation for this username/password limitation it can affect customers who want to use non-ASCII credentials.
