All Known Implementing Classes:

public interface Authentication
extends Serializable

Represents a user's Authentication. An Authentication reprents the granted authority of the user within the Workflow system or the enterprise. The authority is identified by a String value which should be unique for the particular type of authentication. TODO This is a first cut at this interface, perhaps we should look at something like Acegi security for handling some of this authentication stuff?
