I think you have discovered wby this is a hidden define.

The user can only log on to one server per host/domain name. If there is
two servers in the path only one of them can be performing
authentication.

Note: acceleration and proxying is very different things wrt
authentication.

Note2: You cannot perform authentication in a transparent proxy. Not
technically possible.
