The 0-8 spec states that the field is a longstr, and provides the
following explanation:
      A block of opaque data passed to the security mechanism. The contents
      of this data are defined by the SASL security mechanism.  For the
      PLAIN security mechanism this is defined as a field table holding
      two fields, LOGIN and PASSWORD.

So for PLAIN auth the field will indeed contain a table, but that is not
something captured in the type.

There is no public bug database atm. It's on our todo list.

rabbit_framing.erl is auto-generated. If you do find any bugs in it then
you need to fix the generation script, not the file itself.
