AppservPasswordLoginModule not abstract

Hi all,

I noticed that AppservPasswordLoginModule is not an abstract class,
though the JavaDocs and GF documentation both say it is:

http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E18930_01/html/821-2418/beabo.html#beabs

Thus, "Custom login modules must provide an implementation for one
abstract method defined in AppservPasswordLoginModule" makes no sense
since there are no abstract methods. I see that this was changed as part
of this commit:

http://java.net/jira/browse/GLASSFISH-6543 (rev 23448)

My question: should we change the docs to match the class, or is this
specified at the spec level somewhere and the class needs to be made
abstract again?

Thanks,
Bobby
