My reading of this doc suggests that you need the admin user and password 
to be able to do this.  This seems a bit risky.  If I were running an 
icecast server with multiple streams, I have to say that I wouldn't be very 
happy giving out the admin username and password to everyone who broadcast. 
Shouldn't this be a function requiring the source password and username for 
that mount, or overall if there isn't a specific mount username/password 
set?

Or is the doc wrong?
