So, here's my more full-fledged proposal.

The first patch refactors libpq code, by moving the responsibility of 
reading the GSS/SSPI/SASL/MD5 specific data from the authentication 
request packet, from the enormous switch-case construct in 
PQConnectPoll(), into pg_fe_sendauth(). This isn't strictly necessary, 
but I think it's useful cleanup anyway, and now that there's a bit more 
structure in the AuthenticationSASL message, the old way was getting 
awkward.

The second patch contains the protocol changes, and adds the 
documentation for it.
