Version 1.0.4 has some small fixes for the ssh backend and some
improvements for the http backend. Nothing major though. If it is
viable to include that in bullseye, then why not. Also note that
upstream changed to proxmoxer/proxmoxer.

Version 1.1.0/1.1.1 introduces token authentication. There is no reason
to rush that into bullseye though. There is still the option to push
it to backports if people like that feature.

Sure! Any progress is very welcome!
