During development of a new project, we want to check how Google PageSpeed Insight perceives a yet to go-live environment. Due to the default http authentication the PageSpeed Insights scan cannot be completed. Whitelisting the useragent for Google Pagespeed from http authentication is, apparently, not possible.

Currently we need to move the Hypernode into production mode before we can run the scan, but that's a bit cumbersome and makes the environment open to the public (while we're still in development phase).

Ofcourse we can use Google Lightspeed, but this gives us mixed-results. Having the possibility to whitelist the Google PageSpeed useragent would do the trick for us.
