Keith Turner commented on ACCUMULO-259:
---------------------------------------
It may be better to throw an exception instead of returning false when
something does not work. A user of the API can forget to check the boolean and
nothing will happen. If you do not properly handle the exception, it will
percolate up.

> Currently the ZKAuthenticator does both the checking of credentials as well
> as the functionality of the Authenticator. We need to split those into two
> different classes for improved testing as well as pluggability of the
> security scheme.
