+        </summary>
+        <description>
+          Allow parsing and formatting of the <code>auth</code> and
+          <code>encryption</code> sub-elements to be a child of the
+          <code>source</code> element. This will allow adding an
+          <code>auth</code> sub-element to a <code>backingStore</code>
+          or <code>mirror</code> elements as a means to track specific
+          authentication and/or encryption needs.
