Assuming this is Debian, there's no bug report needed. It's an intentional
maintainer choice and not a bug.

I think its default in a lot of distros. I know it is in openbsd and I'm
pretty sure freebsd also.
What would cause the "warning: SASL: Connect to /var/spool/postfix/private/auth
failed: No such file or directory" to come back after working for a while?
I had to restart dovecot and postfix,
Is there any postfix debug tool like doveadm that I can run to test
authentication?
I think what it comes down to is if you have turned off chroot or not.
If not you need to think about the following lines:
/etc/postfix/main.cf
smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot
smtpd_sasl_path = /var/spool/postfix/private/auth
Because if you are chroot its really looking for
/var/spool/postfix/var/spool/postfix/private/auth which doesn't exist
most likely.
