 This has been discussed infinite times. If the relay wants clients to authenticate the relays can send an AUTH message immediately upon connection.

 Why would the client want to authenticate to a relay that is not expecting that or prepared to handle that AUTH message? Or are you saying that the relay is prepared for it?
