/**
* Abstract base class for password-based login modules.
*
* <P>Most login modules receive a username and password from the client
* (possibly through HTTP BASIC auth, or FORM, or other mechanism) and
* then make (or delegate) an authentication decision based on this data.
* This class provides common methods for such password-based login modules.
*
* <P>Subclasses need to implement the authenticateUser() method and later
* call commitUserAuthentication().
