Not really sure what you mean here?

In that case you only need to implement the getHash() method, and just 
leave getPassword() returning null.

In general one of the main aims of the Undertow IDM API is to be a 
wrapper that allows us to use the PL IDM without a direct dependency on 
PL, while also allowing us to integrate with what we currently have in 
the Wildly upstream. If there are potential changes that will make it 
easier to integrate with PL then I am happy to discuss them.
