>
> Extend the Authentication Provider interface to allow implementations to 
> resolve a realm qualified user identity into a human readable name.  If the 
> authentication provider does not recognise the realm, it is not capable of 
> resolving names or the name is not known, the provider must return null.  
> Callers must be prepared to handle null.
> Internally, providers may implement this method by calling out to the 
> authentication backend. Alternatively, the provider may maintain a cache of 
> names, populated as users authenticate.  The provider should be prepared to 
> be queried many times for a user's name during the lifetime of Broker's 
> execution, so should take steps to avoid expensive processing, if necessary.
