Research direction

Start by locating the driver implementation and checking how authentication capabilities are currently handled. Compare the driver's behavior with the HasAuthentication contract and existing Selenium usage; done when basic authentication works through the driver and the relevant behavior is covered by tests.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

So after some debugging on a project, i found out that the driver doesn't implement HasAuthentication, which means that using basic authentication with selenide does not work - and might not work with mainline selenium(didn't test that). In all cases, implementing HasAuthentication solves this problem. I have a really dumb internal implementation, but having this built in would be nice.
