Hi Iñaki,

this has been in our default configuration since version 1.2.0. And this 
behaviour is actually sufficient documented in the module readme. SER uses 
also the same way of deriving the realm from the message content, and the 
auth module is probably used from most of the installations. 

So i think we should really confident that the current working of the auth 
module is not correct. Then this should be discussed on sr-dev, as we need to 
take care to not introduce new incompatibilities in modules that should be 
merged in the long run.

Cheers,

Henning
