Gotcha: I thought that "false" would cause the connector to ignore all
client cert info, while "want" would collect it but not process it,
while "true" would perform the checks for you.

Instead, "false" and "want" are essentially the same (right?) and "true"
does the checks for you. If you have "want" or "false", plus a
<web-resource-collection> that demands CLIENT-AUTH, then it will be used
for identification purposes, but not actually checked against a valid
certificate chain.

Do I have that right?
