A situation where an embedded browser such as Android WebView or VR headsets may cause selkies-gstreamer to be unable to be authenticated with the basic authentication option. As a solution, URL parameters ?username=myusername&password=mypassword can also be provided as an alternative in web browsers in embedded systems. Ideally, selkies-gstreamer can prioritize URL parameters if provided and then show the dialog for basic authentication if both parameters aren't provided.

Additional:

Allow basic authentication passwords to be passed in hashed form, not plain text.

This is related to #39.

View-only password is to be done simultaneously with #39. Spun off.

JSON Web Token (JWT) authentication has been suggested by a community user. This is inspired from the Apache Guacamole Tomcat web client.
