The version I've just committed keeps the config settings at their defaults,
yes.
For full authenticated access, you need Python-PAM, yes. As an
alternative, you can now set your Xen-API server up to use no
authentication, with something like this in xend-config.sxp:
(xen-api-server ((127.0.0.1:9363 none)))
This will open TCP port 9363, listening only on the local interface, using no
authentication.

Certainly, I'd like to see tests that hit the raw API too. It's still a
moving target, of course, but things are starting to settle down a bit,
so comprehensive test suites, either through the Python bindings, or
even the C bindings or the CIM providers would all be good.
