There's already MNG-5585 [1] for declaring credentials for authentication 
realms insettings.xml, so that Maven could choose the credentials that match 
the challenge by realm instead of hard coding the mapping of each <repository> 
to a <server>.

I'll leave that to Justin, as he has the need for this feature and can probably 
describe his requirements best:

  <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG>

I just pointed out that Eclipse Tycho already does something similar "on top 
of" Maven's setting.xml for repository mirrors. Would be great if the two 
mechanisms would be similar syntactically as well.

Best wishes,

Andreas
