Follow-up Comment #9, bug #56909 (project wget):

How about adding a warning in the documentation and/or man page ? 
That feels like a simple solution :

- RFC is still respected, there are no change in behavior or added options
- Users have a way to be warned that manually adding Authenticate  headers (or
any headers with secret data) may be leaked on 30x response, and thus should
be manipulated with care.
