> Enhance the Jackrabbit Server module by adding a PluggableDefaultLoginModule extending DefualtLoginModule and a LoginModulePlugin interface. The PluggableDefaultLoginModule uses the LoginModulePlugin instances to verify the credentials presented by the user.  
> The PluggableDefaultLoginModule falls back to the DefaultLoginModule implementation if there is not support for the Credentials instance presented.
> This approach allows custom AuthenticationHandlers to provide custom login behavior for the Credentials they pass to the SlingAuthenticator - particularly useful when no password is made available to the handler by the authentication process.
