This is intentional.

Authentication *requires* TLS so there is no need to have any  
configuration for that.

Non-authenticated connections use TLS if available and fall-back to  
non-authenticated if not available.  But non-authenticated connections  
are deprecated so I see no need to support explicit non-secure  
connections here either.

Explicit secure configuration can be passed via the 'secure'  
parameter, but as noted above I see no reason to make the  
configuration more complicated for the 99% of people that should just  
use the default.
