             Summary: Implement WebConsoleSecurityProvider2 for integration with Sling Authenticator
                 Key: SLING-3193
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-3193
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Extensions
    Affects Versions: Extensions Web Console Security Provider 1.0.0
            Reporter: Carsten Ziegeler
            Assignee: Carsten Ziegeler
             Fix For: Extensions Web Console Security Provider 1.0.2


The current security provider implements only the WebConsoleSecurityProvider interface doing an auth based on username and password by trying to login into the repository. If the web console runs within the Sling context, we should rather use the Sling Authenticator for authentication. This would allow for a seamless integration without the need to retype a password while keeping the exact same checks 
We could enhance the module to register the type 2 interface if a Sling Authenticator is available, the old implementation if not for compatibility
