    Description

      Elytron comes with set of SASL mechanisms (as requested by EAP7-530), but they don't fit SASL requirements.

      New mechanisms has to be registered by IANA as requested by SASL RFC 4422 section 5 and Java SaslClientFactory and SaslServerFactory contracts.

      Current list of mechanisms provided by Elytron, which are not IANA registered:

      • DIGEST-SHA
      • DIGEST-SHA-256
      • DIGEST-SHA-512
      • JBOSS-LOCAL-USER

      Suggestion for improvement:
      Provide specifications for the new mechanisms and register the names by IANA (see section 7 in RFC-4422).
