[Hawkular-dev] agent cannot use security token

I just tried installing the agent to use securityKey/securitySecret rather than username/password and it failed to authenticate with the server. If I use username/password, it works fine.

It isn't anything with the agent that seems to be the problem because during my testing, I attached to the agent with my debugger and right before I sent the auth message to 

http://127.0.0.1:8080/hawkular/accounts/personas/current

I change the value of the key/secret to "jdoe" and "password" and it works. So there is something on the server-side that doesn't like the agent passing in the token credentials.

Can I ask if anyone else sees the same thing? It's easy to test:

1) in the UI, create yourself a new token
2) in standalone.xml's <storage-adapter> element, change the "username" attribute name to be called "securityKey" and set its value to your new token's key and change the "password" attribute name to be called "securitySecret" and set its value to your new token's secret.
3) start the agent back up again

It should work, but doesn't for me. I tried it with two different token key/secret pairs, failed both times.
