Credential helpers may know which URL needed authentication before, but that is not per operation. I wonder if it is sufficient as the zeroth approximation to always try authenticated access if helpers have any auth material to the URL regardless of the operation? There needs a way to force unautheticated access if we were to do anything of that sort, of course.
