Follow-up Comment #7, bug #56909 (project wget):

The Authorization is not special when set manually (someone else may want to
use a different header to send private information that should removed on
redirection).

So a new option may allow detailed control over how often each manually set
header can be redirected.

Or simply a leading flag like

--header "0,Authorization: ..." # don't set in redirections
--header "1,Authorization: ..." # set in redirections (default)
