[Security] Authenticator methods description
At first i just wanted to reword this sentence i found missleading.. in the Custom Authenticator page.
If
nullis returned, the request continues like normal (i.e. the controller matching the login route is called).
I think it should be:
- (i.e. the controller matching the login route is called)
+ (i.e. the controller matching the current route is called)
Because it can be the login route for some Authenticators, but it's not for stateless requests, Header tokens, remember me...
I then realize the "if / if" was the reason I found things a bit unclear at first sight.
onAuthenticationSuccess(Request $request, ...)
If the user is authenticated, (...)
If ``null`` is returned, (...)
I read this as some sort of "if / else" ... but the first "if" englobes the whole paragraph (it's true again in the second one).
So i tried to rewrite a bit (using the docblocks from the AuthenticatorInterface as inspiration)
