------------------------------------

             Summary: More certain credential based mechanism selection.
                 Key: ELY-251
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ELY-251
             Project: WildFly Elytron
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: SASL
            Reporter: Darran Lofthouse
             Fix For: 1.0.0.Alpha4


When filtering authentication mechanisms we need to really be able to offer two modes: -

 1 - Only offer a mech if we are sure it is supported.

Risks only offering a weaker mechanism in a mixed domain but also eliminates mechanisms that could fail for a valid user that just happens to have a different credential type.

 2- More general support.

i.e. offer the mechs that may be supported.
