Will Smartsheets Webhooks introduce more authentication methods for callbacks? Or any workarounds?

The Smartsheets webhooks are great ideas, but without even basic authentication they require an exposed endpoint to use since the only way to authenticate is by receiving and examining the payload. Having an exposed endpoint is not an option for most enterprise solutions, where at the very least Basic Auth is necessary. Even the ability to add the headers manually would be great.

Anyone have a good workaround to using the webhooks with an endpoint that requires basic auth?
