ntlm authentication concurrency

Hello,

My name is Vincent Miszczak and I'm working as a network engineer for a company where we use Squid.
I'm trying to introduce new cool features such as dynamic SSL bump and so on before my boss buys a Palo Alto device.

Among those features, there is one missing and I cannot get why : ntlm authentication concurrency. You have released a multiplexer for old helpers (and I have written a new one with some new features like wiping unused helpers,...) and Squid supports the protocol, but actually concurrency on 3.1 (we are talking of production suitable products) cannot be configured and that's nasty. What's more the documentation http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/config/auth_param/ is wrong. "Removed Basic, Digest, NTLM, Negotiate auth_param ... concurrency setting option.". There is no such parameter for NTLM as far as I know.

Can I hope to find this feature in a new 3.1 release?

Regards.
