Hello nginx developers,

I'm searching for more information about this specific change and other changes in general.
The source diff from 1.17.9 to 1.17.10 contain mostly code changes but nearly no other information.

https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_core_module.html#auth_delay is a formal precise option description.
But I found nothing more. Somebody had a problem, that's solved now?
What's the reason for this enhancement?

I simply like to know if there are other places such stuff is discussed prior releases.

Thanks
Andreas
