[security-dev] PLINK-84 - Login can be bypassed with any user after a first successful login

[Anil Saldhana]

 From what I understand from JIRA comments, the use case boils down to 
use of additional credentials after a successful authentication.

I am thinking maybe the authentication process should register the type 
of credential last used and if subsequent login() calls happen on the 
identity, then a change of credential (via the credential.setCredential) 
should trigger an authentication process.

Unless the credential type has changed, I am unsure why we need to 
perform another authentication when the user has already authenticated 
and the session is active.

Thoughts/feedback?
