             Summary: Programatic authentication
                 Key: ELY-573
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ELY-573
             Project: WildFly Elytron
          Issue Type: Enhancement
          Components: HTTP
            Reporter: Darran Lofthouse
            Assignee: Darran Lofthouse
            Priority: Critical
             Fix For: 1.1.0.Beta7


This is critical as it risks changing defined APIs and SPIs but we need to cover programatic authentication.

It is however possible this is handled within the app server integration and not within our framework but we have two predominant cases: -
 - Servlet calls authenticate which means our mechanisms need to be triggered to challenge the client.
 - Servlet calls login with a username and password.
