I have an idea and TODO list entry for making that happen. But nobody
has yet sponsored teh few days work that will take and my spare time has
been dedicated towards other more interesting developments.

You can't.  see RFC 2617 section 1.2:

"The user agent MUST choose to use one of the challenges with the
strongest auth-scheme it understands and request credentials from the
user based upon that challenge."


The only way to influence the browser selection from Squid is to not
offer some schemes. eg an access control list per-scheme. Which is the
idea mentioned above which has not been implemented.

You can possibly turn off support for some schemes in the browser
itself. But I've only heard of it being done to disable Digest and NTLM
