Darran Lofthouse updated ELY-39:
--------------------------------

    Description: 
Some algorithm names are in the password implementations, the problem with this is they are not visible to other classes in the project wanting to create instances of them.


  was:
The mechanism names are currently in the password implementations, this means they can not be used by classes in other packages or outside of Elytron.

In addition to this a password provider whilst obtained by using an algorithm can decide on what password type to return based on the passwordspec so we should not assume a tight coupling of password and algorithm name.
