> The current authenticate method in the UserManager interface allows for 
> UserManager implmentations to authenticate login requests with just username 
> and password.  Given the support for FTPS and client certificate checking, it 
> would make sense to include additional information for authentication 
> purposes.  By including the RequestHandler, we could get access to the 
> control socket (for information like the client IP address) as well as get 
> the client's certificate chain in case the Socket is an instance of 
> SSLSocket.  Once the client certificate is available, a UserManager 
> implementation can perform 2 factor authentication by matching the user login 
> with parameters within the client certificate.
