That would be vary appreciated yes. 
We had a similar talk in Disable REST authentication on OH3? - #8 by Spaceman_Spiff and following posts.
We should determine a working configuration ans explain how to achieve this using a reverse proxy.
I am currently running a nginx proxy with ssl enabled but basic auth disabled.
Until @Spaceman_Spiff s issue hasn’t been answered/solved we should maybe aim for a configuration that is working with an enabled api authentication.
Otherwise a restart will break a docs suggested configuration. I would like to avoid that without a proper way to deactivate auth in useful cases.
Just ping me if you want to start or have questions about the docs.
