It's easy to get confused when you enable authorization and nothing happens - no warnings, but also no functional authorization. (Custom overrides are necessary to point to the authorizer)

If would be great to emit an error, stating that an authentication method seems to be missing.

Possible addition: this behaviour could be overridden with a custom config flag, allowing the user to specify their own authentication via config overrides if desired. Preventing non-functional authorization would help for a transparent and intuitive user experience.

Related: TLS authentication can currently not be connected to authorization it seems?
Update: work with an anonymous authenticator?
