Only the last thing for the enum values, I would personally prefer
something with a prefix E_CLIENT_SOURCE_TYPE_... only to not have it
confusion-able with E_CLIENT_TYPE constant.

After all, the generic open/... functions can be added to
libedataserverui, to some e-client-utils.h/c, possibly together with
renaming actual e-client-authentication.h/c. Maybe?

By the way, the proposed merge of server side parts, it may also involve
merging client side bits (for E*View) and thus finally drop all the old
cruft. It's a benefit, I hope, even with broken backward compatibility.
(I would prefer to break backward compatibility personally, rather than
inventing special names for structs not intersect with old names.)
