So if I absolutely want to make sure I got a 401 or 407, it's possible
that in certain rare case I have no choice but to wait the end of the
download.. because I'm getting this information from the header.
No - the 401 or 407 will definitely be available with the first byte.
What might not be available is some of the extra information needed to
figure out how to correctly apply authentication. This is admittedly a
pretty rare case (most servers give you all the information up-front),
but we did find at least one server where some of the authentication
challenge headers came through after the data was transmitted.
