No, maybe these two steps are optional.

But it took me a few months, after reading the docu and trying the
kris/test hundreds of times, to understand that 'default_authentication'
was not a 'weaker authentication scheme' but something the 99% of the
people would like.

It's having, always, the function of authentication at hand, even before
the user has authenticated himself *really*, and it's mostly necessary
when you want personalization, user preferences etc
