Download tool - Allow Windows Authentication

Please add support for windows authentication to the download tool.  I know there's a workaround but that involves using curl and the run command tool.  The run command tool is awful and should be avoided at all costs, so please improve the download tool so I can use internal APIs.

Alteryx team, please look into this.. Not only there are 5 ideas for this, I've also found dozens of post about people discussing about this. Workaround for this issue are difficult and slow.
