Items in scope vs out of scope
These are all great points and this is why I would like to insist that we have a defined extension point in the authentication process for TAXII 2.0.  It would be great if this was also discoverable so clients could auto detect.  But we may need to make that optional.  Can anyone speak to that?
HTTP Basic + JWT as the MTI seems like a good idea that most people can get behind. It is just important to note that you could have a policy that says you do not accept HTTP Basic + JWT authentication.  In this case you could just respond with a simple error message and either tell the user why or not, depending on your security model.
Thanks,
Bret

For an example where  special  certs might lead to a barrier to entry, US-CERT's CISCP program insists on using FedBridge certificates at the moment.  I know both ourselves and another large financial services firm have had trouble obtaining this type of certificate due to general confusion from our internal approval processes and even with external CAs who can't scale requests for certificates that require additional verification.  This is not to say that we'd necessarily have the same trouble with extended validation certificates -- but we're certainly making it harder for the average bear to use SSL if we prefer or require them.
