[cas-dev] CredentialsToPrincipalResolvers

I need to add an additional check to our X509 flow, basically  
checking to make sure the username in the cert hasn't expired from  
our LDAP server.

I could modify the AuthenticationHandler itself, but right now I'm  
already using the stock one and the less I modify the better obviously.

I have a custom X509CredentialsToPrincipalResolvers which creates a  
DartmouthPrincipal object. Either of those classes could do the  
check. My question is can a failure in one of those classes "trickle  
back" and cause the same flow that a failure in the AuthHandler  
itself would cause?

Thanks,
Steve
