Description

Currently authentication methods can configure all the request options except for the cert option (the verify option also cannot be specified, but I don't a need for that). Would a PR to allow the setting of cert on the request object to be propagated up to send be acceptable?

Research direction

Trace how authentication methods configure request options and how those options reach send. Confirm where the cert option is currently omitted, then verify that setting it on the request object propagates through to send as described in the issue.
