E.g. http(s) authentication or ssh authentication with private access,
so no read is possible without authenticating.

I agree, but as I can't access the transport protocol directly with the
command line interface, I'd need something in Mercurial to route this
information through - or a change in saving the default location, so
that it doesn't contain authentication information.
