EDS doesn't use user password even if it is known to the engine

When isc_dpb_password is provided to the engine using embedded connection it is not used by EDS without user credentials. IMHO, the engine should store the password (encrypted may be) and provide it to EDS when no user credentials is set in the query.

Also network server should provide the password to the engine if auth plugin allows that.

That trick with embedded engine appears possible. I suppose not only password - login should be used too?

What about getting password from network server - no, here I disagree, for some users that may become an argument to use the only plugin with that feature: ahh, we had to use legacy plugin cause srp does not support subj feature.

At first, login is already provided.
At second - no, legacy plugin doesn't allow that. At least not a plain password which I would like to receive.
