Your idea collapses into a simple case of: popup the auth login and accept
anything that is entered.
Squid bundles with fake authenticators for testing that does exactly that.
For the older versions there is
http://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples/Authenticate/LoggingOnly
You seem to be stuck in the idea that having a auth popup alone makes
things secure. The entire purpose of an authentication is to control who
gets access. Allowing random people to add themselves anonymously is not a
good idea.
