FB4 connections and endangered legacy_auth

[beegentoo]

This is definitely no bug report but something that should be discussed. I hope this isn't considered rude but I really don't know how to ask...

This library can only connect to FB4 using legacy_auth mechanisms which have to be specifically enabled in FB4 (disabled by default). The Firebird-Team doesn't give any clear informations if legacy_auth will persist and, if so, for how long.

I know this library is widely used in container-environments since it doesn't require any native libraries and thus keeps a small footprint.

So I'd just like to ask: are there any plans to implement SRP-Authentication? Or is it something currently considered unneccessary because legacy_auth is determined to stay?

Thanks!
