             Summary: Ability to supply additional information during credential acquisition
                 Key: ELY-151
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ELY-151
             Project: WildFly Elytron
          Issue Type: Enhancement
          Components: API / SPI, Passwords
            Reporter: Darran Lofthouse
            Assignee: Darran Lofthouse
             Fix For: 1.0.0.Alpha1


I think this is the final known gap in our credential acquisition and validation API/SPI.

There are a couple of specifications that also allow for additional information to be used when obtaining a representation of a users credential, the most obvious being the session based variant of digest authentication where a nonce and cnonce are also incorporated.

A second variant with two different modes of operation would be the realm associated with the digest credential, currently we assume it is tightly associated with the storage representation of the credential but it could also be the case that the mech is requesting it for a specific realm.
