Comment (by archon810):

 That'd be a fine solution, or maybe just have it as a UI setting. After
 all, if we had Application Passwords before, that was our "yes, this is
 supported and should be on" toggle, but with 5.6, we lost it.

 A direct upgrade to 5.6 also broke API authentication for us - it started
 coming back with 401, but @SeBsZ traced it down to the
 `using_application_passwords` key not getting created during the db
 migration for some reason. Have you had other reports of this?
